Well, depending on where the brain is damaged, the brain controls the heart and the rest of the body so if the part of the brain that controlled the heart or the blood stream got damaged, blood could stop flowing a little and there could be blood clots, causing a heart attack, etc.

∙ 13y agoA heart attack interrupts the flow of blood throughout the body. That includes providing blood to the brain. The blood carries oxygen to the brain. The brain is very sensitive to the availability of oxygen and it only takes a few minutes of oxygen deprivation to permanently damage it.

∙ 12y agoYour heart does not connect to your brain anymore than your lips connect to your tailbone. However, the heart is innervated by the nervous system of which the brain is at the center, and the brain receives blood circulation through the veins and arteries of which the heart is always pumping blood throughout. I want to add though that we could make a connection like this from the kidneys to the sexual organs or the stomach and the eyes, so it doesn't mean they "connect"
