Here are some...: Sorry to hear your lingering adverse effects from concussion, which has affected your learning ability. But it is nice and encouraging for you to voice what you have experienced since head injury. At this time, you have to learn how to adopt and adapt to whatever your life might have brought to you, since life is a one-way street of accumulation, modification, and continuation; no magic.

BRAIN HEALTH: Concussion means "to shake violently". When this happens, the brain must go through several steps to heal. Any activity that takes attention away from healing slows recovery. Complex thought and problem-solving, like schoolwork, are not ideal in promoting brain healing. If you are still having symptoms, you should be entitled to "school accommodations". Would be happy to consult & help further
