Hi, there. I have been reading this thread as it progressed and didn't feel that I could comment, basically everybody else has said what I have thought. I have felt angry, sad, amazed and frustrated.

I am glad that you are feeling better.

But please, be careful, you are lucky that you have had a warning. If I had known that falling off a horse and landing on my head at 14, being knocked out playing hockey at 16, hitting my head on the bottom of a swimming pool at 15, then bad car accident at 21 would lead to me being like I am now with all these problems I would have been more careful and NOT TAKEN ANY FURTHER RISKS. I was lucky to not have had any lasting effects before I was 45.

I don't mean being paranoid but before doing something that could risk hitting your ask yourself if it is really worth it.

I won't bore you with what I am like now - I was similar to you and am now like Mark maybe not quite as bad. The things that I did were not worth it!

Please take care

Lynlee
