Brain injury changes life for the injured person as well as his or her family.

Due to changes in the physical abilities, cognitive functioning, balance, vision, fatigue, and emotions of the person injured, the spouse or children may increase or change their responsibilities with the family farm.

Modifications to equipment and farming operation may be helpful too.
