Default head injury

my little guy had a traumatic head injury in Dec. He was treated with iv steroids and O2. His neurologic symptoms were sever and he wasn't expected to live. He did make it and gradually his symptoms resolved as the brain healed. If it is a brain injury it is a wait and pray game. We had to watch for seizures for the first week and he had none. I still need to watch for them and the neurologist said that there is a possibility they could show up later. Meds are the solution if they are severe enough. Brain injuries are difficult. It just takes time but if this is an old injury and there are seizures I would see a neurologist and they may prescribe meds. I hope things turn out well.
