Nine months after the son of Oklahoma Congressman Markwayne Mullin suffered a traumatic brain injury in a wrestling incident, he has completed his rehabilitation and is back home in Oklahoma.
Rep. Mullin announced his son Jim, completed his rehabilitation at the Centre for Neuro Skills in Bakersfield, California. During the rehabilitation, the congressman missed numerous House votes because he was with his son. However, he continued to offer his stands on the various issues including those dealing with energy.
“I am excited to share my son Jim has been discharged from the Centre for Neuro Skills and we are heading home,” Mullin said. “Nine months ago, our family was rocked when Jim suffered a traumatic brain injury in a wrestling accident. In less than one day, Jim went from being an elite athlete and at a high school learning level and to a third-grade learning level, losing most of his motor skills, and suffering severe short-term memory loss. With God’s grace, Jim has accomplished something in nine months that the specialist said could take two or three years. Thank you to everyone for the prayers, support, love and encouragement. We couldn’t have done this without you.”
