Going Back to Work and Neuropsych Report.
 
Yep, you read that right. I got called in for an interview today, for a security job...and it ended up being a sort of "orientation" type thing. I nailed it so well, they called me back for a second interview and I nailed that one too...I GOT THE JOB!!!

I've been doing some spontaneous healing the past week. Its been weird...Its like something clicked overnight and I was functioning well again. Then, I got my neuropsych report back and my IQ was above average. There was things that I did score low with, such as immediate and short term memory and some auditory stuff...but there was lots of things that I scored above average. Most of the high scores were with visual stuff, like visual memory and problem solving...and some motor skill things. Anyways, after I got the report back, my confidence went through the ceiling.

However, due to some of the low scores that I had...I've been diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment - secondary to brain injury and two other things. I don't have the actual report in my hands yet. My case manager went over it with me and I'll have a copy to share with you guys next week.

Just thought I'd note, SS did NOT receive a copy of the report and nor will they ever.

So yeah, I'm a little nervous about working 40 hours a week. But, its very low stimulation in a quiet apartment complex and its at night. I won't have to deal with the heat.

Happy healing, Everyone!!!

Nick

That... is... FANTASTIC!

Congrats Nick! I know how gratifying it can be to do even just little things.... I did my first photo shoot a couple of weeks ago, and while I struggled head wise after everyone had left, it felt incredible to be productive!!!!

Proud of ya man! Good job! Literally!
