- Give the spaghetti and meatball example. \nBrain injury is a diffuse axonal injury caused by shearing forces in the brain.\nAcceleration causes shearing injury, which refers to damage inflicted as tissue slides over other tissue. When the brain is accelerated, parts of differing densities and distances from the axis of rotation slide over one another, stretching axons that traverse junctions between areas of different density, especially at junctions between white and grey matter.[2] Two thirds of DAI lesions occur in areas where grey and white matter meet.\nCerebral cortex is a common site of injury with diffuse axonal injury. \n

- Other here refers to a collection of: sports, childbirth, operations, health complications, radiation therapy, toxic chemicals, and workplace incidents. \n\nThis is from OBIA 2012 Impact Report, so it reflects Canadian data. U.S. data differs significantly with the inclusion of one category? Any guesses? It’s armed conflict. Acquired brain injury has been called the signature injury of modern conflict. There may be as many as half a million servicemen and women returning from overseas conflict areas with acquired brain injury. \n

- People who work in aphasia know very well that information is not just inert. It’s not just something that we do to justify our existence. Informing clients, caregivers, and health professionals is the most important thing we do. Like aphasia, many of the problem stemming from brain injury are caused by improper perceptions. \n
- After an ABI, many people report feeling a loss of control over their lives.
