(Nashville Scene) – On July 2, 2023, Jason Barton was getting his family’s pool ready for a Fourth of July gathering. When he was working near the filter pump system, it exploded, and debris hit him just above his left eye with such force that it caused bleeding in four different areas of his brain.
His wife Jennifer rushed to his aid and called an ambulance. It was four days before he opened his eyes, and around five weeks before he returned home.
Walking out of the hospital, Barton was a different man, who was now learning to live with a traumatic brain injury that changed the way he thinks, feels and acts. CONTINUE
