Conrad Tullis, who died last month, endured a terrible tragedy. A nonprofit in his name now helps others with anoxic brain injuries.
Liz has partnered with scientists, researchers and others to improve the understanding and treatment of Anoxic Brain Injury , which denotes damage done to a brain when it’s deprived of oxygen.
Liz, a longtime corporate executive, then joined forces with other scientists to research and create a safe and painless stimulation therapy called Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation,which targets the area of the brain damaged in children who survive a near-drowning accident. They won — something of a minor miracle in Texas, where politicians tend to avoid issues like medical marijuana
Liz made a habit of taking Conrad out into the world. There would be no sequestering, no hiding her special son away. From kindergarten through high school, he was mainstreamed into classes in the Alamo Heights School District, in addition to receiving special education.
