Yes, Dax's cranium-the external layer of the skull-was fractured leaving him in a coma at young age with a bruise to the frontal left cortex of the brain. After awakening-from coma-Dax was forced to overcome short-term memory loss, long-term memory loss, as well as 're-learn' basic motor functions such as learning to walk (again), and learning to talk (again). As he recalls, Dax's brain eventually re-learned basic A-B-C's, 1-2-3's, and -in due time-proved UAB medical personnel to have falser preconceived notions as Dax was able to regain consciousness.
