Caregivers have a lot on their plates, but some caregivers, whether through notoriety or sheer desire, find they still have the opportunity to help others going through the same struggles they faced. In 2005, Lee Woodruff became a caregiver for her husband, Bob, an ABC news anchor and reporter wounded in Iraq. The couple went on to create the Bob Woodruff Foundation, designed to help veterans and their caregivers. Creating a large, national nonprofit isn't the only way to help others though. Telling your story so that others might feel less alone in their struggle is another way to help, so that's just what TBI Champion Jasmin Blair chose to do. In this episode of the TBI Family, we talked to Lee and Jasmin about their stories and helping others.
