Based on the March 2026 court documents, it is heavily implied that Daniel has a permanent brain injury sustained from [[self-harm]], as well as abuse perpetrated by either his [[Elisabeth Shimer|mother]] or [[Travis Larson|father]].  


In the documents, it stated that, along with trauma sustained by him punching himself in the face, there were reports all the way from 2011 that states that Daniel's mother reported that he had a "non-accidental head injury" when he was only 3 weeks old. He also had a seizure when he was 5 months old. It is said that 1 out of 10 people who were hospitalized after a TBI will have seizures.<ref>https://msktc.org/tbi/factsheets/seizures-after-traumatic-brain-injury</ref> The court documents also states that Daniel reported about an incident where his mother hit him with a hammer when he was only 8 years old. However, given Daniel's propensity to lie (especially about those close to him), this should be taken with a grain of salt.
