Thanks everyone for your kind words and encouragement.
I'm no better than I was earlier. However, my son's mother picked my son up and is going to keep him for a few days. I'm really hoping after a few days of strict rest that i'll be rewarded with some improvement.
Mark, I'm going to look in to getting help from the types of doctors you suggested.
I'll look into brain injury support groups as well, tomorrow.
Thanks.
Wow, somebody living with half a brain? That's amazing. How does he get by? What does he struggle with?
Not sure what you meant by case manager. Case manager for what???
Sorry I'm just having a hard time understanding right now. I had to have a nurse help me fill out paperwork.because it was confusing.
Thanks again, everyone, for your kindness.
Nick

What happened: I was randomly assaulted from behind in June of 2011. I was knocked unconscious for an unknown amount of time (less than 30 minutes) and have no memory of the event. CT scan showed contusion and hematoma of the left frontal lobe. I spent 3 days in the hospital. Diagnosed with Post-Concussion Syndrome in September 2011. Currently have Medicaid, Medicare and SSI.
Current symptoms: Brain fog, mild memory issues, problems with spontaneity, occasional spacing out, word finding difficulties, tinnitus in right ear and some other things that I can't explain.
Life after the brain injury: 4 years after the injury, I'm engaged to my beautiful girlfriend of 5 years, I'm the CEO of my own business, Notorious Labs, I've taught myself how to program complex games and apps which is a feat I never thought I'd accomplish and now live a semi-normal life with very mild PCS symptoms.
Slowly but surely regaining my life back.
