Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is the leading cause of death and disability in children and adults from ages 1 to 44… Every year, approximately 52,000 deaths occur from traumatic brain injury...
In my brother’s case, which came first, the alcoholism or the TBI? When he was diagnosed they realized he had had TWO injuries. The most current had just happened as a result of intoxication, and the other was from a year previous so obviously we didn’t know the cause. His death came about either from the TBI’s or his alcoholism, we don’t know because they found him so late. The TBI’s made him so angry, so incapable of dealing. He did come back to us, from not walking or talking, as a result of rehab, But he was never ever the same. 😦
