Paula,
It's one of those abbreviations that when you hear it, you will slap yourself on the side of your head and say, 'duh'!
TBA means 'to be arranged'. The site in this case is not yet decided.

- Injury Description, Date, extent, surgical intervention etc: I am ROBPI, global injury, Horner's Syndrome. No surgery but PT started at 2 weeks old under the direction of New York Hospital. I wore a brace 24/7 for the first 11 months of my life. I've never let my injury be used as an excuse not to do something. I've approach all things, in life, as a challenge. I approach anything new wondering if I can do it. I tried so many things I might never have tried, if I were not obpi. Being OBPI has made me strong, creative, more determined and persistent. I believe that being obpi has given me a very strong sense of humor and compassion for others.

Hi Connie
BPI.... brachial plexus injury
OBPI.... birth injured--- obstetrical brachial plexus injury you are and OBPI/adult because your were injured during birth.
Tbpi.... traumatic brachial plexus injury--- injured via accident... cars, bikes, falls, surgery, etc.
I am an obpi adult -- and I am right arm injured I might write robpi. It took me awhile to figure this all out. I had only heard my injury called Erb's Palsy.
hope this helps
