I would like to welcome you to my blog. Burnsurvivorusa.com has been up and running now for a few years, and finally I've added a blog. Much has been happening in the past year. We have represented some amazing burn clients and have had success in obtaining excellent results. As always, I want to keep examining my experience as a burn survivor and keep communicating with other burn survivors. Having the chance for the last several years to be involved in burn litigation as an attorney has given my life a new and exciting facet.

I celebrated my 15th anniversary of my burn last August 16. It's interesting how my perspectives keep changing with time. Coping and perservering with a traumatic injury is a long-term process. I continue to learn new things about myself and the world through having had this injury.

In the last month or so I've had the pleasure of corresponding with a German photographer, Detlef Henrich, who happens to also be a burn survivor. He is an amazing artist who photographs burn survivors and exhibits the photographs around the world. I will hopefully have some of his work posted on my website in the near future.
