My husband had a tractor(semi) transmission fall on his head. (He was a diesel mechanic) Knocked him out. Split the skin deep. Doctors didn’t even keep him over night for observation. No x-rays or anything. At home he vomited and couldn’t move without being sick for a couple of days. He has been kicked in the head by cows more than once. Now, years later and looking back he has suffered emotionally so much so that he struggles with relationships with all our children and me. I don’t know what to do anymore. He has no compassion, he has trouble sleeping, he doesn’t enjoy anything, he developed anxiety. He now just ranches, so he doesn’t work with anyone for the most part. He lost job after job after the injury and I never connected the dots. I get to where I can’t take anymore and want to leave. I didn’t think all these troubles were from TBI but maybe that is the case.
