Brain injuries can be caused by a blow to the head or a lack of oxygen. A traumatic brain injury could result from a vehicle accident or other traumatic event. Lack of oxygen could be the result of drowning or fetal distress in the case of a birth injury.

Not all brain injuries are “severe”. Even a mild concussion may constitute a brain injury and cause:

• Difficulty performing tasks
• Memory loss
• Mood disorders
• Impairment of motor function
• Other disabilities, including blindness, cerebral palsy, etc.

Traumatic brain injury victims and their families often face a difficult future. Patients who can recover, fully or partially, often require extensive retraining and therapy to regain their previous abilities. Many brain injury victims do not recover at all, leaving their families with the difficult task of caring and providing for the rest of their lives.
