You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

While this may cause some amount of brain damage, it is unlikely that the injuries will be fatal. Surgery can drain much of the blood and drugs may be able to prevent some of the damage. Death is only likely if the bleeding cannot be stopped or mistakes are made in surgery- neither is very likely, though there is still a risk.
There have been many false reports and rumors (some reported that she is already dead, and later retracted the statement). The best information available is that this is serious, and will likely result in brain damage. A vegetative state is more likely than death.

Out of 1 million Traumatic Brain Injuries:
--75,000 to 100,000 die within the first two hours.
--70,000 to 90,000 become permanently disabled
--2,000 will exist in a persistent vegetative state

Update- she has died due to an epidural hematoma. According to wikipedia (which references Mosby’s Paramedic Textbook, 2nd revised Ed), only 15-20% of people die from this injury.
She probably died due to the fact that she did not receive immediate medical attention. This serves as a tragic warning of the seriousness of head injuries.
