To get hit in the head hard enough to lose consciousness is not a minor incident.
- mason240 10y agoRegardless of how lasting the effects of the concussions were, at least one person's life has been significant set back here.
- falcolas 10y agoI think you mean that two people's lives have seen significant setback here. Brain injuries in general and concussions specifically are not minor injuries: their effects can last from months to lifetimes, impacting work and private lives. I had a friend who "hit his head" and went unconscious; he died. We were warned that even if he lived, he would likely be a different person. If all the woman suffers is a few months of impaired cognitive functionality, she will be lucky.
