From time to time, parents mention concussions on the forums. These may have serious consequences which may become apparent later in life.

In the recently released movie " Concussion ", Will Smith portrays Dr. Bennet Omalu, a man of both faith and science. In addition to a riveting storyline, the movie reveals several important facts about concussions.

The original story the movie is based on is very good too. I think this is it:

They don't just happen in football (though they do happen a lot in football). Cheerleading, soccer, synchronized swimming, cycling and other sports all have their share.

Dr. Omalu also seems to have lived Schopenhauer's famous quote:

"All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident."
