Ultimately, it was a blessing. One of her schoolmates and friends that had been accidently shot in the head about two weeks prior to her accident was there. Their injuries were quite different, but both had brain injuries. He could talk and was surprising mentally all there. If he has memory or cognitive deficiencies, you can't tell. However, he couldn't walk and had difficulties moving because of his brain injury. They became quite competitive about recovery. It was good motivation for them both.

Thank you for sharing the HBOT information with me. I have not read about it yet. I will look into it and speak with her physiatrist about it when we see him next month. I actually have a list of questions for him. I hope he's planning on spending some time with her this time around because my list isn’t' getting any shorter. Actually, he's always been awesome about answering all my questions. I hate that we have to find a new doctor when she turns 22.

If you don’t mind my asking, what is your doctorate is in?

Thanks!
Angel
