My son (age 7) was a pedestrian struck by a vehicle in 1992. His injuries included a
severe closed head injury (TBI). He was in a coma for several weeks of the initial 8 week
hospitalization. He was unable to move, walk, talk or feed himself. I was told he would
be in a vegetative state his entire life. He was transferred to a neuro-rehabilitation center

to recovery. Now as an adult he lives on his own, drives a vehicle and has a job.
