Jeff Poirier| Severe brain injury to 90% recovery
I began my electronics’ career at Devry in 1975, which by 1987 had culminated to a video/ computer repair business employing three technicians and 1 counter person. The business was a warranty depot for 26 different electronic equipment manufacturers. Things were looking rosy until February 1987, when a forty-foot, thirty thousand pound ship to shore container struck my car on highway 400. I suffered multiple injuries apparent at that time, but the most debilitating injury would not be recognized for almost two years.
For two years I thought I was ready for a rubber room, until my mother handed me a newspaper article that outlined all my symptoms thus giving my problems a name. Head Injury. I was uplifted by this knowledge for about six months. Then the only head injury specialist at the time in Ontario told me that the brain doesn’t heal, ever. Brain tissue and cartilage are the only parts of the body that do not heal, but he said that people with a bad knee(s) can walk again with assistance, like a cane. So I was to learn to function, with help. Frustration and anger raged on as I realized that I would never “get better”.
Lightning temper and anger; cognitive problems; unanswerable depression; none or very little short term memory and if distracted by anything, no memory. That was to be my lot in life?! I instantly went from my Company’s largest asset to its’ largest liability. It was the end of everything I knew and had lived for in 29 years.
After my year of Rehab was completed I continued my exercises to strengthen my back at the local Recreation Center, three mornings a week. It was in the sauna (I befriended twenty or more retired gentlemen, some over ninety) I learned that aging and brain injury result in almost similar problems; except I seemed to age instantly and had no adjustment time. My customers, suppliers, family and friends have experienced my instant raging anger. My solution was to avoid confrontation to the point of isolation. In addition to living in a cave I also developed external tricks like everything that must leave the house with me, must be placed in or on my shoes.
In 2000 I met Paul Beatty, and he thankfully has since been mentoring me. In spite of understanding the science of human cells, my belief system wouldn’t allow me to completely “get it”, until 2004 when Paul excitedly told me about the latest research just completed. I knew that brains are seventy percent fat. He then told me about new research complete with MRI, showing growth of new brain cells including blood vessels, bypassing and surrounding the damaged area!
I was already taking the fatty acids three to one ratio with the supplements for a year with some improvement. I was spreading the 3:1 ratio over three days to save money. I decided to increase the 3:1 ratio by taking it every day. Within about three months I had reversed about 90% of my problems!
In the Nineties it had been medically proven that my memory addressing system and frontal lobes were permanently damaged, never to return. Thanks to the research of Dr. David Horribin and the diligence of Paul Beatty, unless fatigued my brain now functions almost normally when I compare to my past.
I don’t recommend Brain Injury Survivors tell their Insurance Companies about this. Anyone who has suffered even one day of this hell deserves their due compensation.
The Paul Beatty patented vitamins and minerals coupled with a daily dose of essential fatty acids has changed my life and my health future. I no longer expect to fork out over $2000 a month for retirement digs in future because my body has fallen apart cell by cell. And the twenty to thirty dollars a month I spend on me, is pretty cheap and pretty intelligent health insurance.
Any questions? Call 705 722 0865. I’ll be glad to hear from you.
