FIGHTING BACK AFTER THE TRAUMA OF A BRAIN INJURY
A traumatic brain injury (TBI) or head impact injury is a jolt or blow to the head that can disrupt the brain’s function. The gravity of this type of event can leave a victim in various stages of debilitation—ranging from a mild concussion (local injury) to severe brain damage, coma and even death.
