Jean in Newcastle Posted August 29, 2015 Author Share Posted August 29, 2015 Scout, how is VolsFan doing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScoutTN Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Scout, how is VolsFan doing?Thanks for asking, Jean.Right now he is pretending to watch golf on TV while actually napping. Looking forward to watching the Vols play football soon. ;) He is doing well, but not back to normal yet. Scar is healing nicely and his hair is growing back, so the scar is less noticable. He still gets dizzy occasionally and tired very quickly. Not sleeping very well, though that may not be a surgery effect. He sees the surgeon a week from this Wed. and we are hoping he will be okay to drive and work by then, but maybe not. Also seeing a neurologist next week for med mgmt and possibly the sleep issue. Partly, he is bored. His activity level is very limited and there is inly so much of "jump in with the homeschool daily life" that he wants to do. He did vacuum today and help Dd make her bed and supervised Ds' piano practice. :) Friends have been kind to call, text, send notes and take him out to eat. Since he has oodles of fee time and I have eight zillion things to do, I am not too sympathetic with the boredom thing. One thing that has been hard is coming back to regular life after such an existential crisis. Brain surgery brings eternal and ultimate issues to the forefront of your mind and heart, but you can't live on that plane for long. Too intense! Related to that, he has been very understandably focused on his own body and trying to understand the significance of how he feels physically. But if he stays that mode much longer, it will become just self-centeredness. So he is trying to get himself thinking of others and not making mountains out of molehills or imagining new medical crises. We are glad to be doing ordinary family things and getting back into school year routines. Thankful for all the support we have received, but glad to be less needful of it in day to day life. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
