Maybe a nap would help
If I attack, follow me

If I flee, kill me

If I die, avenge me

A person who has had a concussion may sleep through the night.  You do not need to keep awake a person with a recent concussion. This was recommended for years to observe a person for any changes after a concussion. People worried that the person may go into a coma and never wake up. This is no longer believed to be true. You can allow someone to sleep after a concussion. This should cut down on sleep deprivation for all involved.  People with concussion should be seen by a doctor if they were unconscious for more than 5 minutes or amnesia persists or if they do not appear to behave normally.

Why on earth were you playing basketball? It was gorgeous out here on the East Coast yesterday, you should have been shooting at your fellow forumers! Paintball is after all, far safer than basketball.

67f here in indiana so i was playing paintball for the first time since april.

i had a concussion once.  at some summer day camp thing when i was in thrid grade, we were playing a game.  basically a bunch of kids stand around the outside of a parachute and hold it.  someone yells a color and if you are wearing it, you run to the other side before the parachute comes down on top of you.  so me and some girl were running as fast as we could with our heads down.  we got to the middle and that was all.

I got knocked out snowboarding about 6 years ago. I went to sleep about an hour and a half later and I was fine.

the kids that lead tackles with there head are the most fun to hit, i bit through my mouthguard and chipped a tooth when this 6'4'' 300lbs kid jumped on me, i am 5'6'' 180lbs...he won.

there is this kid at my school who clames he got a concussion and got
amnesia. The only reason he does this, is to get attention from the chix.
Well it doesnt seem to be working to well, all the girls can see right
through his purposeful running into doors.

I hope you get better



But......if you do die i need a new pod pack and pods so you wanna hook
a brother up

I knew a kid in middle school who got in a bike accident and got his head run over. Bad amnesia. He didn't know who he was, who anybody else was and retained pretty much only things he'd learned up until he was about ten. Weird having him have no idea who I was when I met him again a few years later.
