[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks PP. Yes, he's definitely flat and his memory is shot. He's also a GT kid, so this inability to be able to handle simple tasks is pretty scary.[/quote]

I'm sorry to hear that.  Now seriously OP, call children's and take the first available (at any location).  They will give you the paperwork you need to deal with school.  I promise you, this will all be less 
scary and easier to deal with school with them in your court.

Second, I am a voice on the internet so you should not take medical advice from me, but here's what I would say based on our experience: your kid can't go back to school until his headache passes.  Even then, he most likely won't be able to do a full day at first, and you have to cope by rearranging your life and making this a priority.  There is nothing going on at school that matters more than resting his head right now.  Nothing. Nothing at all.  He will recover quicker if he does less.

Good luck.  It is terrifying, but kids do recover.  The flat was the scariest for me.[/quote]
