Head injury / Brain injury
Brain injury may result from damage by some external
force, such as a fall or blow to the head.
It can happen to anyone at any age and may leave permanent physical handicaps.
Less obvious, and much harder for family and friends to cope with, are the
effects on personality and behaviour.
The hardest time is often when the brain-injured patient returns home
and family and friends can feel bereft of support and very isolated with this
familiar yet very different person.
In fact there are many potential sources of help available, if
you know where to look.
