It depends on which part. The cerebellum, at the base of the brain, is essential - damage that and your body won't be able to function at all. However, you can damage the cerebral cortex and just lose part of your memory or forget how to talk or not be able to move part of your body. It's a fascinating subject - you should Google "brain injury" and read more about it!
