ankareeHere's the latest about Gale and his recovery:
Gale is continuing to progress but the anticipated time of healing may take a bit longer than initially hoped for. He will be released from the hospital on Friday and will have friends and family staying with him for at least a month to aid in his rehabilitation. His medical team, friends and family will work on the cognitive therapy to help rebuild his memory. He’s walking well, and healing nicely and anxious to return to his home. His shoulder will take 6-8 weeks to return to full function. His parents will remain through this week.
Hmmm... good news, yes, but not exactly the greatest. I'm not sure if I should feel happy or sad for Gale. I'm really glad that he's making progress, is healing well physically and that he's going home where he'll be surrounded by family and friends. I'm sure he'll be happy to get out of the hospital after all this time. A lot of people end up doing much better once they are away from the stress of being there and back in the comfort of their own home, I hope the same is true for Gale. My heart does goes out to him that his mental healing is taking longer than was anticipated. I can imagine that trying to rebuild his memory must be frustrating for him. I know head injuries can take quite a while to heal, so I continue to do my best to be optimistic about his recovery. I'm incredibly grateful that he's alive and every day he's another step closer to being fully healed ... but it doesn't mean I'll stop worrying about him!
Please keep sending Gale your good thoughts and healing vibes! And if you're someone who prays, please say a special prayer for him.
*hugs to you all*
