how did he get hurt?I no it waqs some kind of head injury

[westlakelax17]

I had many concussions while playing in the NLL. He told me at a camp I went to that after having so many concussions, that he had to quit because it got really bad.

westlakelax17 is right. He had reoccuring concussions in his last years of the NLL. Much like what happened to Jay Jalbert.

and as we all know, concussions are easier and easier to get as you get more, meaning even the pro 7 helmet wont help.

Exactly...Head trauma happens easier and easier after an injury.

Even if you think it was only slight contact.

According to his mother, who I know very well, you guys are right. Tommy suffered many concusions and the residual damage was just adding up and becoming a daily fight.
