The recovery Matt Hughes has displayed is INSANE considering how absolutely vicious his injury and condition were. A true miracle.

[@tomtbi]

27 year TBI survivor here from a bad car wreck on 3/31/97... I was in the hospital for 26 days and in Physical Therapy for 18 months... I struggle with repeating myself,poor multitasking skills,poor short term memory,etc... I attempted and failed at several careers-( Special Education Teacher,Car Salesman,911 Radio Dispatcher)... The combination of TBI issues,PTSD issues,and failed careers led to increased depression,anxiety and suicidal thoughts... I FINALLY have a somewhat decent quality of life.... I FINALLY received SSDI-( Social Security Disability Income ) after 15 years,4 appeals and 3 attorneys... I drive for a car dealership Part Time and build model cars as a hobby... These activities give my life meaning,help me deal with my TBI and PTSD issues,and improve my self esteem...

Matt Hughes is not a normal man, he's a fighter in all aspects of life. He's a good guy a strong willed human.

I never knew the extent of Matt Hughes injuries and how severe it was man it just reinforces to never take nothing for granted and to count my blessings I’m glad to see Matt still with us and getting better.

Beautiful stories. Thanks for helping these fine people.

[@kijxy]

I've had a brain injury aince influenzae type b almost killed me, and I was in the hospital for 14 days. I'm disabled and can't do math and have learning disorders. Growing up special needs was traumatizing and people usually think I'm faking a brain injury because I write so well, but intelligence is multifaceted and not that simple. I wish more people would educate themselves on the different varying levels of brain injuries. Laura hasn't posted in a long time, and I hope she and Jon are doing well.

[@ApexbraincentersAvl]

Thank you for sharing. Yes, MUCH more education is needed in helping those that don’t understand brain injury in all its forms to do so better. We will fight that fight every day! Appreciate you!!!

[@saveyoujon911]

Thank you

[@ag4allgood]

Since his accident its good to see Matt make such good progress. No doubt his athletic training helped with that. Independence is a great accomplishment & Apex really helping Matt achieve more ! Continued success Matt !

id expect no less from a seal and a former ufc champ to beat the odds.

I am guessing that wife bought that shirt for the seal.

[@alharrison1038]

Poor guy, John's Wife obviously dressed him today.

[@yankees29]

If John wasn’t in the state he is currently in he would rip your head off and shyt down your throat. He’s a Navy seal. Guy is tough as nails.

Where the fuck do I find a wife like that lol

Matt may have suffered brain damage when he was ran over by the train, but he's still too smart to be a Trumpanzee!

Does this help dementia patients

It can. Best to call us at 828.708.5274 to discuss.

[@andresruca1664]

if a train kouldnt kill hughes how the hell gsp koed him? :S i think then GSP has more power than a train, that is more power than a ford eskort at max speed so i would say in a fight between GSP vs Ngannou, GSP via KO
