...snip...Concussion is the word I'd use too...but maybe the word doesn't actually signify much in the way of detail or level of severity. And yeah, when you hit one side of the head there can be enough energy to bounce the brain off the other side of the skull. The initial blow is call the 'coup', and the bounce is the 'contracoup' The the cerebral spinal fluid and layers of the brain provide protection, but sometimes not enough.

See? Most of us just say "ouch". :lol:

(Thx for the info CES...just kidding. Have a good day.)

...

otherwise your GF's brain is retaking control of the government :D
It would be an improvement. (To the country, not the GF)


Although, she's gotten a lot more conservative in her old age. I used to think that happened only AFTER brain injury, not before. But hey, we've been mostly avoiding politics in our discussions. I'm now concerned that after an event like this, she'll get worse now and join the Tea Party or something. :facepalm:

Good morning, Atty. Wow, Scary. I hope your GF recovers quickly. I'm glad there was no bleeding, and that they gave her a decent follow up recommendation.

Good morning, Mad. I hope your parents arrived safely on their journey.

Thanks, ces. I hope so, too! But it's a bit inconvenient for them to let me know whether or not they have. :closedeyes:

Good morning everyone.
Hope the GF is okay Atty. That's a scary thing. Just happened to my daughter about a week ago. She slipped on the ice and fell face first into a mailbox, passed out and hit the pavement. She was still having dizzy spells up until the past few days. I swear that child needs to become a permanent shut-in. She walks outside and something bad happens to her. :facepalm:

Well, they're not about to do any international calling via cell phone. My mom doesn't do the internet and my dad wouldn't have the slightest clue how to send me an e-mail on a device other than his laptop, much less via an interface that is not the yahoo mail web page.

:facepalm:

If there were any issues, one of my multitude of cousins would get in touch with me. :thumb:
