Dear (insert appropriate deity):

We do not share a religion, only a calling, a calling we did not choose, but which was chosen for us: brain injury. We ask for your help on this anniversary of deliverance of your chosen. We ask not just for "miracles" but the personal strength to continue our advocacy for education, research, prevention and support with respect to brain injury.

We ask that you watch over those who are tonight in a coma, as their brains sleep in an attempt to heal. We ask that you watch over their loved ones, whose consciousness has been permanently altered by this sudden shock. We ask that you give help to those who have awakened, to have the energy and perception to address the process of rebuilding themselves. We ask that you give their loved ones the energy and hope, to enable them to stay as long as they can, to be the partner in the rebuilding and recovery. We ask that you help those who love, to put aside their petty battles, and focus first on the needs of the brain injured, and then on the needs of the lover or spouse, whose life has been changed as radically as the survivor.

And we ask that you once again passover, to allow brain injury to passover those lives which brain injury is reaching out to touch at this moment. If you can intervene, intervene by having the seatbelts buckled, the helmets used, the speeding laws obeyed and no more for the road. We ask that you intervene so that those who have suffered the blow or injury to their brain, receive proper attention, so that the there are no secondary injuries, either from improper medical care, or through misunderstood adjustment.

We ask for your help and this we pray.

Amen

Understanding Subtle Brain Injury

The concussions that disable, are almost always more symptomatic at 24 hours, than at the 2-4 hour time frame when injured persons are evaluated in the emergency room. Brain injury symptoms escalate over the first 24 hours, because brain injury involves a cascade of events. It is critical that if you are still symptomatic the day after your injury, go back to the same Emergency Room, don’t wait for a doctors appointment. It is critical that the Emergency Room personnel see that the symptoms still persist or have gotten worse.
