Bacteria Spinal Meningitis Survivors {life afterward}?

Just trying to survive this horrible illness took over a year and half for my 29 year old daughter, her brain absessed after the first treatment given for meningitis. she now has a plastic scull pins and a metal plate..even with all the pain medicines and siezure medicines her headaches and back pain are still there..Daily
it will be 2 years in feb. she got meningitis and she is having many side affects to this day..Does anyone have suggestions on who is knowlegable about life after meningitis..For adults. I know about childern foundations but she is a young adult..

I am sorry to hear of your daughter's condition. I can't really say what life will be like for your daughter, but I would try the following site: http://www.meningitis-trust.org/ . It is a support group for parents of people that have developed meningitis.
