Drew also had fallen unconscious for 24 hours after the injury and woke up to find that he had a stutter. This stutter was not a developmental stutter. He had developed it for post-injury. To have stutter post-injury is very rare and Drew is one of those cases.
It might be due to neurogenic involvement due to concussion and brain affection and not due to the peripheral nerves or local voice box damage. It could also have a psychogenic element or be mixed.
