Varies.: Even serious heat traum is vey variable. Depends on the areas of the brain that were damaged and how severe that severe is. Most severe tbi cases have some permanent residual, but at the same tome some are able to recover, communicate and may not have noticeable deficits unless someone knows what to look for or certain abilities are challenged. Assessments help with understanding what may be.

Define serious: Once the severity of the head injury is defined, a more educated answer may be provided. The brain is very plastic and may recover to a certain extent. With brain injuries, there is always hope, but one has to also be realistic.
