                     As we all know, brain injuries are the worse and can possibly be fatal in the long term, so with this hypothesis, doctors dauntlessly seek out different ways of healing for these calamities. But how about this; what if the doctor told you that a certain treatment would not able your child to live to his full capacity when you know that he will get better? Tricky situation. What to do? Go with the doctors orders or take your own initiative? Teenager, Grant Virgin suffered from a traumatic brain injury after being struck by a hit-and-run driver. The doctors told his parents that he might not live or rather will never be the same but grant's parents would not give up. Even though they were told to 'Leave their son alone', they knew there was something out there that would bring their child back to consciousness. Going against the doctor's orders his parents started to sneak doses of omega-3 along with his medication. Being that studies show that omega 3 is good for the brain (since the brain's cell walls are omega-3)they thought it would be a good possibility. Surprisingly, after a few weeks, Grant's mother receives and unexpected call from her son. He was back to normal, even better than what he was before he got hit. It worked!
               I find this so amazing that omega 3 did the job! I mean come one guys we got the natural supplements right in our hands. This add caught my attention because I do take omega 3 as a vitamin supplement, to help my mentality and to stay healthy but I had never expected it to get this far. This could solve thousands of problems, help millions of patients and being that this is natural , it is the best thing of all. I was overjoyed to find that Grant has come back even better than before and it warms my heart that he was healed.  Hopefully, being that the parents decided to do this and not the doctors, maybe the doctors can take another spin on how they evaluate huh? ;D LONG LIVE OMEGA-3!!!!

  3. It seems that dejection and negative spirits easily take over people in this generation and this story shows how persistence is rewarding. One mishap or even, in this case, catastrophe, can be heartbreaking and difficult to recover from, but positive thoughts have more power than one might thing.
