While the answer to this question may seem obvious, it is actually a fair question to ask. Some brain damage does in fact destroy vital centers of the brain that are necessary for functioning normally. A person who has suffered a gunshot to the head, for example, may never fully recover if certain parts of the brain were destroyed. But "damage" does not necessarily mean "destruction." The human brain is quite amazing and even people with severe damage from accidents or wounds have been able to recovery, as the brain seems able in some cases to re-wire itself, bypassing damaged circuits and creating new connections. Without knowing more about the circumstances, it would be difficult to say if the person's injury is just damage that can be repaired through surgery and therapy, or if it is permanent damage which destroys the ability of the brain to function.
