Dear @lanulare & all,
I have a TBI from a one block from my house, on 2012. I had different ways of the “problems”, usually physically & mentally like cutting the grass or swimming again or working at my city or playing my MC (motorcycle) and on. I’ve lost my memories like Christmas from my kids example. I lost 80% of my memory & understanding today.
#1 (1/2 a year) - I lived at the hospital and then another place of that. That learned easy places - like bathrooms, eating dinner, walking without falling down, and on.
#2 (3/4 a year) - Staying at my house and spend M-F, 6 hour a day, like playing cards & others.
#3 (5 years) - At home but another M-F, 6 hours a day working things like the money, cleaning, cooking, lifting, working in/out, “help-ing”, and on. That was, for 5 years with this. That’s gone 3-4 years ago.
That’s ended. Sure I can’t drive anymore but I’m married for the last 42-plus years - thankfully! But I worked at my church; meet older friends, trying my ability ride my guitar/music (can’t get, but trying again), cleaning up, and others.
Thx,
Greg D. @greg1956
PS: I take 3 times-a-day of meds for anti-seizure than before. Makes the last 4 years of anti-seizure - thankfully!
PSS: Be careful of people has a TBI the weakness as people gets older. I am, now, 70 years old. I’ve falling down cause I had been acccident a falling down a few years ago on my rearends. Now my balance is gone on my right foot. Falling down is to easy.
@gregd1956 You might want to try a ukelele. Only 4 strings. Chords are easier than the guitar.
