In 2015, Jamie MoCrazy, former former X-Games and World Cup skier, suffered an accident while skiing that put her into a natural coma, with her brain bleeding in eight spots and paralysis of her right side. On her way to the hospital, the doctors announced her time of death, saying that she had a 0% chance of survival.

Ten days after the accident, Jamie woke up from the coma but with extensive physical and brain injuries. She experienced a loss of memory, motor skills, and while needing to relearn how to walk, was also relearning how to talk and eat. The psychological impacts of her traumatic brain injury (TBI) would prove to be a much more difficult obstacle for her than the physical impacts. 

“Something about my physical recovery was that it was all visible. People could see when I relearned how to walk… [and] I got a lot of attention and praise for those visible physical recoveries,” she said. “The emotional recoveries were invisible, so nobody else knew that I was climbing an alternative peak when I was going through my recovery process.”

Jamie’s TBI experience inspired her family to take action, to help other TBI survivors and caregivers, and eventually resulted in the creation of the MoCrazy Strong Foundation!
