Brain injury can also obliterate memory abilities.
I've had a single moderate concussion, where one of my first memories afterwards is of sitting in the hospital emergency room with a couple friends. I had a notebook with my handwriting, containing several pages of questions/answers that my friends had me write down so they could stop repeating themselves to me.
- mirimir 8y agoHey, but at least you had friends and something to write with :) Overwhelmed as one would be, placed in my position Such a heavy burden now to be the one Born to bear and bring to all the details of our ending To write it down for all the world to see But I forgot my pen https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZXJLQntCP0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZXJLQntCP0

- dingo_bat 8y ago> Brain injury can also obliterate memory abilities. I think any kind of shock/adventure can mess with memories. I was in a nasty car accident about half a decade ago. I escaped virtually un-hurt (just some bruises and bumps all over). I can only remember flashes from before and after the accident. None of us in the car can recall what actually happened (even the driver!). One moment we were cruising smoothly at about 100km/h and the next moment I'm crawling out through the windscreen, because the car is upturned and the passenger window is crushed closed. None of us had anything more severe than a few bumps and a couple of scratches in my palm from the broken glass. But none of us can clearly remember how it happened, how I called for help on my phone, how we were taken to the hospital.
