Brain Injury Support Group
Traumatic brain injury occurs when a sudden trauma causes brain damage. TBI can result from a closed head injury or a penetrating head injury. Symptoms of a TBI can be mild, moderate, or severe, depending on the extent of the damage to the brain. Outcome can be anything from complete recovery to permanent disability or death. A coma can also affect a child's brain.
I'm looking to chat with other parents of little ones who had to/or by choice be admitted to an assisted living facility. We know it will be inevitable for our little one (born at 29 weeks 9 month old twin girl...suffered from bact. meningitis after 12 weeks in the NICU...now with 10-20% brain function...sadly now, she is non-responsive, but she does cry, experiences pain and will very occasionally track a mobile) at some point in the future, but naturally it is very difficult to cope right now. Anyone else who can empathize?
