Hi Starr. My TBI was classified as moderate to severe, GCS was 11. I had an epidural hematoma with midline shift and subarachnoid hemorrhage, requiring an emergent craniotomy, all that a little over 18 months ago.

I have retrograde amnesia going back about four days prior to the accident, and approximately 5 weeks of post traumatic amnesia. Other than bits and pieces (along with some strange confabulations I sort of remember from the hospital) nothing has come back, my clinical neuropsychologist assured me it won't. I think it's kind of a blessing in disguise; I don’t have any symptoms associated with PTSD that could have been there if I did remember the accident. Hey, I still ride the light rail train from time to time…
