A MESSAGE FROM Brains in Your Head, Feet in Your Shoes
Because of my helmet
Crosby Noah Moser
Griffin Sloan Moser
- Without my helmet, the world would not know the wonders that are my two boys.
- Without my helmet, my husband of then less than two years would be a widower.
- Without my helmet, my parents would have lost their only child.
- Without my helmet, I would have lost my life.
- Because of my helmet, all that remains is some minor, occasional forgetfulness and the need to sleep a bit more from time to time.
- Because of my helmet, I am here to run the 2022 TCS New York City Marathon and tell my story.
- Because of my helmet, I will make a difference.
In 2014 I almost died. A horrific bicycle accident led to me being transferred to a Level 1 trauma facility, intubated, sedated, and hospitalized. A subarachnoid hemorrhage, fractured pelvis, broken ribs, and bruised lung were only some of my injuries. The doctors prepared my family for the worst possible outcome. Needing more information as to what to expect, how to cope, and how to support me, Adam reached out to the Brain Injury Association of New York State. I do not recall anything that transpired directly following my accident, but from what I understand, the staff at BIANYS were truly spectacular, providing him with resources, guidance, and a sympathetic ear.

To commemorate the eighth anniversary of what is affectionately known in my family as Happy Alive Day, or July 25th, I am training for the 2022 TCS New York City Marathon and raising funds to support the work of the organization that brought hope to my family during their darkest hours.
