Erica,

Glad to hear you are not having any academic struggles. I am shocked to hear <All doctors have assured me that I am not at risk for permanent damage if I return to play. > A helmet is often almost useless for Post Concussion brains.

Our brains are usually much more sensitive to minor impacts that a helmet will not protect against. Can you shake your head vigorously without a return or increase in symptoms?

I am having that morning brain fog. Maybe I should try to get some breakfast in me. I am struggling to get my mind to work. I look at the screen and after a few moments, I realize I am staring at my screen saver.

I am really messed up this morning.

Later
