Thank you.
Hey I remember her. She was awesome. Don't remember if she was good. But shee was awesome to watch.
Concussions....KO'd by baseball bat to head 4yrs old.
KO'd by head to ground 8yrs old.
Black ice and ashphalt 12yrs old.
Most of the others happened after elementary school.
I figure 7-8 in total.
That....explains a lot.
I'm forever amazed to have never had a concussion (or at least I assume...I've never had the headaches or nausea they speak of). I've slammed my head on ice and kind of tasted blood (I grew up before helmets), played quite a bit of soccer (constantly bashing your head...in fact my nickname/username comes from a flying headbutt I received), was a boxer for several years, once smashed an acoustic guitar over my head on a dare (for the record, those are much more sturdy than you would think). Anyhoo...made it through all that and don't think I've ever had one. Actually the two most painful punches I received in boxing were both misplaced hooks that caught me in the back of the head...ouch.
I do however worry a bit though about being a victim of early dimentia.
