One statement I'm holding on to for some hope is: "Top Gear TV presenter Richard Hammond is a good example of a patient who made a recovery from a diffuse axonal injury and he woke up after around one week." I understand it will probably be a long and tough road back to some sense of normalcy. He is young enough and fit enough to have a fighting chance though.
