Terrible Week F/U
I went with H to his therapist today and things went really well. He said he was embarrassed that this whole thing happened and that he believed this dovche. I think she got thru to him that his judgement isn't where it used to be and its really important to try not to make impulsive decisions. Which is easier said than done but he will need to just work on it.
He is very cooperative to do whatever will make me comfortable and happy so for now I've set up alerts on our bank accounts, just in case anyone tried to talk him into a similar situation in the future. The therapist said that most frontal lobe injured patients are not cooperative at all so its still a positive sign he's doing better than most people. He's seemed so fine and "normal" for so long now that it was so surprising to me to have a set back after all this time. But it could be so much worse and I just keep reminding myself of that. He's mentally functioning way above and beyond where the Drs anticipated he'd be after the initial surgery.
Re: Terrible Week F/U
That is great news. Even with this setback, it sounds like he is doing wonderfully, all things considered.
Your H is so lucky to have you, seriously.
This is awesome! And sounds like he has a really good therapist.
Glad to hear things went smoothly with the therapist.
If you asked H about a week ago if he thought anything about our relationship was sweet, he would definitely had said no! lol I was flipping out on him for a few days, it was pretty bad. I had become totally irrational. I had a hard time realizing what he did wasnt necessarily intentional but more impulsive. The therapist has really helped me to understand the situation better.
I am really pleased with her and I think she's excellent. She specializes in brain injured patients, but she really goes the extra mile to help the family and not just the patient. Which I know in turn does help the patient in the long run, but shes done a little mediating which I know she doesn't have to do.
A l of this, that is awesome!!
