Mental and emotional impacts of brain injury

Cheryl was diagnosed with a brain tumour in her twenties - it has had significant impacts throughout her life, both ongoing physical and in terms of her mental and emotional wellbeing. She talks about the impact of a 'hidden' illness, and the need to grieve the things she's lost.
