Catastrophic injuries change your life immediately

On Behalf of | Jan 4, 2019 | Catastrophic Injuries |

Catastrophic injuries can impact your life from the moment they happen until long into the future. Even if you can overcome them with medical aids, there is the likelihood that you will experience changes in your life.

There are several kinds of catastrophic injuries that could occur. Here are five that qualify as types of catastrophic injuries.

1. Amputation and limb loss

If you lose a limb, it’s likely to be a major impact on your life. Even if you can change your life to suit the amputation, it still impacts you every day. It can also result in physical and emotional challenges for you and your family.

2. Brain injuries

Brain injuries are often considered to be catastrophic because there is no way to know when a person will recover. Traumatic brain injuries can result in trouble with speech or language, movement, emotions or cause other major, life-altering changes.

3. Ruptured organs

Ruptured organs aren’t always catastrophic, but they can be. Ruptured organs are often life-threatening at the time of the injury, and they could be removed to save your life. If that happens, your life will forever change as a result of no longer having your important organ.

In each of these cases, you could be left with major changes in your life. It is important that you have a chance to obtain compensation, so you don’t have to be worried about finances while you focus on recovery. A simple claim with support could be your best chance of obtaining the money you need.
