Davon Gray's Head Injury(Subdural Hematoma) Playing Football

     DayDay's Near to Death Expierence Playing the game the game he LOVED

Greetings

It wasnt too long ago when i indured a Head Injury(Subdural Hematoma)  playing football. All i remember is going to that game giving it my all, the last thing i was worring about was loosing my life. I played football my whole damn life just about since boys and girls club @ Kettering. I feel like God works in mysterious ways that we as human beings will never understand. The name of the injury i indured was called Subdural Hematoma. Alot of people dont survive injuries like this but i was blessed in many ways to still be here talking with yall telling my story

 A subdural hematoma; also known as a subdural haemorrhage, is a type of hematoma, in a form of traumatic brain injury. Blood gathers within the outermost layer of the brain, between the dura mater, which adheres to the skull, and the arachnoid mater, which puts pressure on the brain. Usually resulting from tears in bridging veins which cross the subdural space, subdural Hematomas may cause an increase in intracranial pressure (ICP), which can cause compression of and damage to delicate brain tissue. Subdural hematomas are often life-threatening when acute. Chronic subdural hematomas, however, have better prognosis if properly managed.

Acute bleeds often develop after high speed acceleration or deceleration injuries and are increasingly severe with larger hematomas. Though much faster than chronic subdural bleeds, acute subdural bleeding is usually venous. Acute subdural bleeds have a high mortality rates, because the force (acceleration/deceleration) they cause other severe injuries as well. The survival percentage of acute subdural hematoma is around 20 to 40%.

God is a blessing in many of our lives in many different ways we cant even imagine. Its time to realize who is really in control. I expierenced alot in such a short time frame. My injury occured in April of 2012. Imagine doing something you love, (playing football) & wake up in a hospital to a nurse telling you, you cant play nomore. I lost my first love, the only thing i knew how to do, the only thing i felt like i did best. I just stay positive and leave it at God has another plan for my life. & he does. I feel like everything in people life happen for a reason. Cause you cant tell me the mortality rate of this type of injury i indured is 60 to 80% and i survive and God doesnt have a plan.
