Tomorrow night (Mon. 8/3/09) on the CBS Evening News with Katie Couric there will be a special piece on a veteran that has been followed by 60 Minutes and CBS since his injury 5 years ago in Iraq.  He is a double amputee with a brain injury who recently underwent HBOT in New Orleans at our clinic for his TBI.  Because of the severity of his injury he was not treated under the current LSU pilot trial that I am conducting.  Instead, he became one of my private patients, received the exact same protocol as the study patients, and benefited accordingly.  He was so moved by his experience that he called CBS to report the latest chapter in his recovery.  I have not seen the final edited segment, but believe that it highlights his plight in the military medical system.  I hope it is positive.
