Coffee Party USA Radio - "I Want Access 4 All" Nurse Nikki Lawley Stops By for "A Cup of Joe"

"I Want Access 4 All" Nurse Nikki Lawley Stops By for "A Cup of Joe"

01/16/20 • 76 min

Coffee Party USA Radio
Imagine having your entire life change suddenly – everything planned for your future becomes bleak – in an instant. In November of 2016, Nikki Lawley was a very active person – a pediatric nurse who enjoyed outings with her husband and dogs. She’d often go on short jaunts to nearby casinos where the 49-year-old professional moonlighted as a card dealer in the past . A New York native it seemed as if Lawley had it all – until one fateful day when everything came crashing down. “Life changed in a second , no warning , no preparation , just like that ..... Boom” she stated in an interview. During a routine doctor’s visit, a child frightened by needles head butted Lawley as she was holding onto him from behind while another nurse attempted to give a shot to the 10 yr. old boy. Nikki was hit frontally and then bounced off a plaster wall and back into the boy’s head in a significant whiplash motion. This was Lawley’s third TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury) and the one that would forever change her life. The impact to her skull was severe and caused an immediate left arm paralysis and weakness and severe head and neck pain. Left with confusion, disorientation, and vision issues, doctors worked to properly treat her. Lawley was subsequently diagnosed with a Mild Traumatic Brain Injury (mTBI) and cervical instability and was then went through a mill of medical specialists, tests, and treatments. That was the last day she was able to work. The once joyful, fun, and energetic nurse was all of a sudden plagued with intense headaches, issues with fine motor skills, sensitivity to light, and cognitive issues that caused her great emotional and physical pain.
