This community is about the struggles we all face "getting back out there". Head Injuries, chronic Illness, or any life changes that force us to withdraw from the outside world; all these things make us withdraw. This is about getting involved with life again, and having the best life you possibly can. Please feel free to share anything that helped you or held you back. I will try to provide info on any subject you request. I am an RN supporter, but also have severe back pain, Fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue. Let's join together in support of Living la vida loca.

Closed head injuries result from a blow to the head as occurs, for example, in a car accident when the head strikes the windshield or dashboard.
In these injuries, a foreign object (e.g., a bullet) enters the brain and causes damage to specific brain parts. This focal, or localized, damage occurs along the route the object has traveled in the brain. Symptoms vary depending on the part of the brain that is damaged. This community is to discuss penetrating brain injuries and share experiences with it.
