A bullet clear through the temple, passing through the frontal lobes... That is a frontal lobotomy... I suspect that She will be a vegetable for life.
Do we even know the caliber yet?
I fear she will be blind....a bullet in that area could clip the optic nerves...one report said the bullet entered the temple and exited her forehead....which would do temporal lobe damage and may alter her personality if she survives. Sad...very sad. She is a beautiful woman who from all reports did a good job even tho’ she would not have been my candidate. She may have some residual damage much like a stroke....won’t know until her brain goes down from the swelling.
Excuse me but my entire frontal lobe was reduced to ground meat after a head injury involving a freaked out horse and blacktop.
The “experts” told my dad that *if* I ever woke up, I’d be broccoli.
Perversely enough, not only did I *not* become an asparagus, my intellect actually increased by leaps and bounds.
I became interested in scientific theories I hadn’t cared about at all, before and taught myself Greek to read the NT in what was then the most “original” language.
Then I became fascinated by etymology, anthropology and archaeology.
Now, it’s computers, infrared/UV photography and dog genetics.
Not half bad for a carrot.
The brain is far wilier than you suspect.
