Brain injuries range from mild to traumatic. After a car accident or a construction accident leaves a person with any degree of head injury, life is rarely as it was before the accident. At the mild end of the spectrum, a brain injury victim may experience personality changes, irritability and difficulty concentrating. Ultimately, a head injury victim at this level may or may not be able to continue working and functioning meaningfully as a member of a family and community.
A traumatic brain injury, on the other hand, may leave an accident with lasting debilitating effects such as the following:
- Affected speech, perhaps unintelligible to others
- Difficulty with self-care or complete dependence on care by others
- Headaches, sometimes similar to migraines
At the most extreme level, a head injury may result in a coma or persistent vegetative state. The person's spouse, parents or children often bear great burdens seeking to care for the severely injured accident victim while being forced to adjust to the injured person's absence in everyday family life.
