I have had couple incident with concussion but it has been 3 and half years for my major brain injury and during those three years, I got several more accidents and bang my head couple of times. I don't have problem with cognitive functioning but I have problem with executive functioning (controlling impulses & emotion and also attention), almost ADHD like. I suffered from memory loss, there are many memories growing up that I didn't remember. I woke up from the accident speaking different language and losing my inability to speak what is supposedly my mother tongue. There are many new personalities that I picked up too.
I am positive that since your son is still young, he will recover quickly. I hope he didn't do like what I did, definitely avoid alcohol for the first few months and probably about a year. This might hinder the healing process.
I do wonder, does he have trouble with speech? trouble with naming things? more pauses? easily fatigued?
All of that in the early stages, but not any more.
oh that's awesome. I still have those problems to this day.
