I was still stupid enough to play backyard rugby and got another concussion.

So to wrap it up for you. I got 3 concussions in High School. Last one knocked me out and caused temporary swelling on the brain. Which caused me to have shakes and other issues. Went to college was stupid and got another one playing backyard rugby which lead to bleeding on the brain.

Last one was completely my fault and has been the main reason for my problems. I was stupid like a lot of people bc I didn't think concussions were serious at the time.

You got a concussion bad enough at the age of fifteen that it left you unconscious from light contact in a walk through, but continued to play football without incident? So you are saying that you played three more years of football without incident and then hurt yourself playing rugby? Sounds like complete bullshit.

Have you ever lived in West Unity or Montpelier?
