The helmut was shattered; my skull was not. I had a nasty concussion though. I am very lucky it wasn't more severe.

I had a number of vision problems, cranial 6 nerve damage resulting in double vision, poor balance, short term memory loss, some personality changes, some mental processing issues. I see improvement week by week, which helps a lot.

Over all I am pretty upbeat about the whole thing. I see I am getting better, which helps so much. Lately it has been getting harder, though. It just keeps dragging on and on.
