On New Year's Day, a family went out to use a new sled. Going down a hill, the family's 10 year old son hit a bump, flipped over and hit his head, knocking him unconscious. It took a while for him to wake up, and he is still having problems related to the injury. Headaches, hearing loss and slurred speech were a few of the complications that might have been avoided with use of a helmet. Because of this, the family is now advocating use of helmets in activities like sledding so that the same thing does not happen to other families. Accidents like these are very dangerous.
