[quote=Anonymous]My child missed ~ 3 weeks of school due to concussion last year. He laid in bed listening to books on tape, had a few short visitors and mostly rested. His school gave him a 504 plan to help him make up/finish the year. Given how helpful the school was he finished up just fine. After he was able to get out of bed, he had a few weeks of on again, off again headaches and exhaustion at any exerting activity. Then after he was able to go back to normal level of activity, I noticed subtle changes to his behavior. 1. he was more emotional (ie got upset more easily), and had a harder time with organization (keeping track of things, sense of time. These were very subtle that only a mom might notice. He's all better now, but it took about a year.[/quote]
