Each year, millions of people in the United States sustain a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). A brain injury may affect the way a person thinks, acts and feels. It can change everything within a matter of seconds, and its lasting effects are often much more than physical. Changes may be temporary or permanent. Many people do not realize they have sustained a TBI, and may not link symptoms to a past injury. To raise awareness of TBI and its causes and consequences, March has been designated as National Brain Injury Awareness Month.
