You are doing great, been there with you! I keep hearing the same things too, rest, rest and more rest. I take short cognitive naps, about half hour, really helped in my circumstances but my speech pathologist says it takes time and it’s a gradual slow recovery that can be set back. I would definitely keep your speech pathologist and the neurologist in the know, so they can help you heal. Three TBI’s is a lot and you might ask them about your progress and how you are doing. I ask mine all the time so we can change and adjust the exercises, rest, activities ect. according to my fatigue levels. I had to sleep a lot in between to recover from the cognitive fatigue and sometimes still do, boring but it works.

You have got this, I will be thinking about you snd praying for you.

Hi, Jennifer, what a wonderful, encouraging reply. It seems I need to be reminded over and over again about the importance of NAPS and patience. I feel encouraged when I'm reminded of these things.
Best, Cate
