One month, its been one month. Unbelievable. Not sure if it seems like so much longer or if it was just yesterday the world tilted on its axis.
Matt is progressing. He just seems so tired. Six hours of therapy a day will do that to you. At this stage, mmentally Matt is nothing like I expected, thank goodness. He is calmer, and not frantic. At one point, I thought that was what Matt would be like that for the rest of his life. Thank God, its nothing like that. My biggest worry is he is pushing himself so hard.
From what I understand about brain injuries is it can still all change. Right now, I feel I have the old Matt back. I don't see much difference in him other than the broken leg, the broken hand, the trouble he has with chest and back pain, the effort it takes to get around by walker or wheelchair, the visits to the wound clinic for unhealing sores, all the trips to therapy, trips for blood work. Yea, life has changed for all of us.
Its a big week of tests for him. When we discuss the therapy tests they are giving him, I can assure you, even a normal person wouldn't pass them. He is doing well but the tests just sound outrageous. Today and Friday will be a major days for Matt so keep him in your thoughts.
It's hardly worth writing on the blog when there is nothing new but I will keep posting updates periodically.
