Not a problem, why would you know ……….. there are certain patterns that head injury usually follows dependant on where the brain is damaged ……….. there are few centres that do after care in the UK so it is difficult to get on-going support which is where Headway helps
For example: I know a man who was a top accountant in a very big firm handling large amounts of money: after his accident (closed head injury) he can't even recognise figures, so adding up etc. is now out of his ken. It makes him very depressed as he is unable to do a paid job as he can't remember where he has to be, even though he uses a daybyday jotting pad to put things down. He was 49 when the accident occurred which had a big effect on his Pension too. Fortunately his personality wasn't affected but he doesn't have much fun or humour in his Life now.
Another man had a stroke, his wife eventually divorced him because his temper was uncontrollable and he wasn't the person she had married.
