The Brain

The brain performs an incredible number of tasks. Different parts of the brain have different functions. The brain co-ordinates all the functions together to do different tasks. Sometimes you don’t know what a great job the brain does until it breaks down!

Damage to the brain can mean that some of the brain parts will not work as well for a time. This means that some of the things that you are normally able to do may be difficult. It is important that you discuss these problems with your doctor so that they are able to advise and assist you.
