Hello to anyone who happens to come by
So I have this character.
He has information which he should not be able to deliver either through speech or in writing. I prefer not to put him in a coma or kill him off.
If he gets a GSW to the head, and the bullet grazes the skull but does not penetrate, can the micro-fractures of the (parietal?) bone cause enough brain damage to lead to swelling of Wernicke's area?
His fluent aphasia will cause him comprehension issues and impact his verbal as well as writing skills, correct?
Will he be expected to have other signs of damage?
Prior to the trauma, he will be an incredibly articulate and well read man, holding a powerful position. Any idea what kind of rehab would have been available circa late 80s/early 90s?
