The effects of a brain injury vary enormously with some people experiencing cognitive thinking and expression issues, some starting to have epilepsy, some no longer being able to control their emotions and some people go on to develop a different personality altogether!
If you come across someone who has had a brain injury, please try and be kind & understanding. There's a wealth of information out there to find support and education about the subject.
