New Haven Register New Haven - Once Displaced Immigrant Dr. Ezzat Moghazy, Partners with AYBOS as the The Rebuild Your Mind Initiative Assistant Director to launch the 50,000 Hour Mental Health Challenge to all mental health professionals. Dr. Moghazy learned the power of "self-healing" early in life as he came to America without a penny in his pocket nor a roof over his head; what Moghazy did have was an integrative approach to eastern philosophy that he learned from his father. DENVER (PRWEB) February 08, 2020 Dr. Ezzat Moghazy began consulting AYBOS and the Rebuild Your Mind (RYM) Initiative in 2019 after Dr. Nina Minagawa sent out a message to her professional network calling for support of the initiative.

Laredo Morning Times Laredo - ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) - As a decorated Navy SEAL operator and explosives breacher, Ryan Larkin was regularly exposed to high-impact blast waves throughout his 10 years of service. Struggling with the psychological effects of serving in four combat tours and an undiagnosed brain injury, Larkin died by suicide on a Sunday morning in 2017 dressed in a SEAL Team shirt with the medals he earned in service next to him. "Ryan died from combat injuries, just not right away," Frank Larkin, Ryan's father, said. Ryan Larkin's repeated exposure to blast waves severely damaged his brain by causing microscopic tears in the tissue, internal lining and blood vessels. Ryan Larkin told his father in the months before his death that he wanted his body to be donated to traumatic brain injury research.
