The daughter of a family friend was struck in the head by a ceiling fan blade. She was not knocked unconscious. Days later and because of persistent headaches, she was taken to the hospital where she was diagnosed as having suffered a concussion. That was in March 2012. We are being told by her mother that she may not be able to attend school this upcoming year. She is a really good student that gets really good grades. Do we really hold our children out of school these days for concussions, or post-concussion syndrome? View Thread
