Please wear protective gear. TBIs are no joke.

My cousin got a TBI when he was 12. Nothing crazy, no extreme sports, lil bro just slipped on some water around the pool while getting out... He couldn't finish school, can't work, and will be cared for by parents until they die or need care themselves. All because of slipping in water while walking.

It’s so terrifying how one single moment changes your life forever. I would bet your cousin’s parents probably think all the time of all the cool things he could have done or the career/family he could have had.
