Traveling can be a challenge when someone is dealing with post concussion symptoms. In this interview, Ashley and Becky Barnett share their experience going on a high school choir trip that Ashley took to New York City with her mom, Becky, as a chaperone/sherpa. They share many excellent tips and recommendations based on their experience, from how to manage overstimulation in an airport to what can make attending a Broadway show possible. We hope this conversation helps you enjoy the travel experiences on your bucket list, even after a head injury.
