What Happens When a Brain Bleeds?

Two weeks ago from today my grandpa had a brain hemorrhage. He was found about an hour later on the floor and was taken to the hospital by ambulance. Two weeks have passed and his brain bleed has not gotten bigger nor smaller. Why is it not trying to heal? He cannot really communicate much he just sleeps all day. Sometimes when you ask him a question and to move his foot once for yes or twice for no he will do that. The hospital has stabilized his blood pressure and all of that but he just isn’t healing. Is this normal? Is there any chance he will get better? He literally had this stroke while my grandma was having surgery to remove the rest of her ovarian cancer which was successful. Thank you.

My son had a stroke and 6 seizures when he was born in 2005. The doctor said it was a bump on the left side of the brain that leaked blood causing the stroke and seizures. Is it possible for the bump to still be there?

Hi, I am 16 years old and have had 3 concussions in the last year. my last one was a very powerful impact on a jet ski this summer. My symptoms have been getting progressively worse to the point of dizziness and the headaches don't seem to go away as they would before after 30 minutes. I just need to know if it's possible to have some serious damage to the brain that I don't know about. Even if there is a slight chance, do you think that getting an MRI would be a good idea, or is it not possible since it's been a month since the accident and there as no major signs of something serious.

My dad went to the hospital
He went in walking and talking
After that they gave him some meds had a reaction to it .
Had a bleed to his brain and now he can't speak or eat and was sent home like that would someone please tell me was that malpractice

Hi All and Thank You for sharing all of your painful experiences . I, myself had a car accident almost 12 yrs ago and I was DOA when got to hospital . They say I was all already completely blue, purple, black from head to toe... Mine happened fast and I think they said i actually passed away at my apt., not sure of many details due to my family doesn't share much of it with me .... I know the nuerosurgeon said there was absolutely no hope and was waiting for my 2 other children to arrive to get with my daughter who lived close by and came to hospital, but they had to make a decision to remove me from life support ...... as that was being discussed they said a nurse in the room with me saw a finger of mine vaguely move and told doctor but he said it was reflexes...... my daughter started screaming for him to do something and he threw me in the OR and cut left skull off and stitched up my vein.... at same time he told my daughter best case sinerio would / could be that i would be a complete vegetable and he had no hopes of that at all.... he just felt - i am assuming - that i was already dead ...... well, he was in shock and the entire staff.... when i woke up some time later i was talking and knew all of my family (which is alot to know b/c such a large family and all were there) At that point he and staff called me their Miracle :) Never by my name seriously, just my miracle ..... he couldn't say anything else .... the scale ( forgot what it is named ) that tells you i suppose the condition of the brain well, mine was 3 and that is dead from what i have been told ..... i am one blessed woman ..... i was 51 yrs old when it happened and since 4 major spinal ops also but still not corrected and basically to go anyplace and walk i must go in wheelchair due to cannot walk much at all - the pain is unbarable if i do ..... i just cannot anyway b/c my body just won't work ..... there is so much detail to all of the last 12 yrs but much too much to begin to tell .... i thank GOD for saving me and the amazing nuerosurgeon who operated on me and his staff ..... but i did want to say this,,,,, i find the older or longer since the accident i tend to be getting worse and worse ..... i can barely walk out of my front door to go on porch ..... i cannot go any place that i am not so very uncomfortable in my own skin and so very many other things that i realize more and more of them getting worse ..... i would like to know if this is normal - as normal as tbi can be anyway - or what ? i must close now due to trembling which occurs with every little thing i tend to do and that is not much..... i have become so liimited last few yrs that i, at now 64 yrs of age come this November, i am concerned how much worse things will get b/c i feel i am still young and yet feel so old at same time .... always exhausted and all things get to me and my anxiety goes out of the roof and as i mentioned so very much more that henders me in life but like i say i am truly blessed to be here and then able to be so aware of so much after all of the diagnosis' given to my family ...... i hope i haven't put this down and it is near impossible to understand - that is another downfall ..... the lack of ability to communicate effectively any longer ..... feel as though ii am only existing !!!!
thank you for any help you could give and also i pray for all of you suffering from having this or those that are dealing with a loved one with it and definitely the ones whom have been loss..... so sorry to you all and GOD BLESS
Keep on Keepin' On - sort of a motto for me .....

My mom fell down stairs they sed she had a bleed on brain but they managed to sort it then next day she died why

I was thrown from my horse caused by car accellerating into him, i flew through air and my riding hat flew off too, really tight fit but strap not done up. I landed on road. Blood coming from ear and unconcious. I was in a coma with notes reading 2 and 6 on gcs. Apparently i moving around, no retina can be seen ( unsure what that could tell) and screaming. My wuestion is i am certain i recall an awareness whilst in coma of shame but only brief, apparently i had bleed on brain but not treated. Is it possible i bleed after my awareness in coma as after i woke up i really had no shame as such and lacked awareness in my behavior but was misdiagnosed for long long time so it was hard recovering. Would i have been in a vegative state? I remember nothing except this shame feeling. I could breathe but not respond to anyone except for screaming. I would be grateful for reply

My brother was in a motercycle accident last week. He was hit by a car. My brother had no helmet on. He is in ICU and has five brain bleeds. I am desperately trying to figure out what how his life will be if and when he wakes up. Please pray for us ours has never been a good relationship. I don't want to leave his side and my heart is broken. I wish I could tell him I love him more than the room and stars. I'm so sorry Jimmy. please come back to me.

I had a brain bleed when I was in 8 grade due to a football accident I thought I just had a headache but went to the hospital after I kept throwing up with a migraine to find out my actual Brain was bleeding! Shortly after I had my skull cut open and theblood drained woke up with a tube in my head and my penis (catheter) I tried to rip both out and the doctor yelled at me. I still retained my memory and functions but my math skills and focus time frame went down tremendously after that , but I am blessed to still be alive and well, although numbers and reading takes me longer ever since the surgery things could be a lot worse, there is hope people have faith

Hi my friend fell at work 8ft down he was unconscious and bleeding from ears nose and mouth!! In the hospital they say he has a fractured skull and has a brain bleed!! The bleeding has not stopped but when he is waken up he gets really aggressive so they have him asleep for him not to pull out the tubes!! This is so sad but I would like to know what are his chances of recuperating and being ok from all his functions?

My mom was also on Plavix and was a fall risk but only had bleeding to the brain one time. We had gone to the Dr. to get a chest X-Ray. While the tech was preparing her, my mom fell in the room and hit her head. Since the Dr. knew she was a fall risk, there should have been 2 people in the room helping. She was rushed to the hospital and the CT scan found a small amount of bleeding on the left side of her brain. Another CT scan was done and Dr. said the blood was going away. They sent us home 2 days later. I asked to repeat the scan before we left the hospital and they said it wasn't necessary. A week later, while my mom was getting her stitches out, I asked the Dr. to redo the scan and again he said it wasn't necessary. Five weeks later, my mom died of intracranial hemorrhage to the left side of the brain. Does anyone think this is a malpractice?

My brother while crossing the divider on the road, had a fall on the divider resulting in seviour right side head injury damaging 60% of the brain.There was profuse internal bleeding which according to Dr has 70% of the brain covered by blood.He was on Ecosprin like combination drug and Dr says because of this it is difficult to control the blood flow and the surgery is ruled out.He is in ICU and on medication with oxygen support and off and on ventilator.Please let me his chances of survival. It is very very urgent Please.
