I am slowing realizing that this third term in school is not going to be a reality. Any kind of schoolwork now for my 16 year old 7+ weeks from concussion would not really be to his benefit. He is not liking special attention on him and even took an in class essay exam the other day because he did not want to be treated different despite me telling him and the teacher that this would not be to his best interest. We just had our sports medicine/neurologist appt. yesterday. He feels son should be much better in 3 to 4 weeks and that we should keep doing what we are doing, not rest anymore and not do anymore. He does not want us to get dependent on sleep aids but Melatonin is O.K. Time will tell and I hope we are doing the right thing. I am trying to listen to all advise and do what makes sense for us.
