Default Back to day 1 by a tiny body shake
My little 2-year-old ran into the laundry room to help me when I was doing laundry. My shoulder hit the edge of a door when I was dodging her. It is just a small/medium shake but I started having the familiar foggy and floating brain feeling again... Counter reset to day 1 now. I am fine with this drama. Just hope it is not another concussion and won't cause permanent damage. Wish it is just a sub-concussion symptom or something less severe.

I doubt a bump to the shoulder would set you back to square one. Even if you hit yourself hard enough to throw yourself off a bit, it should only be a temporary thing and you'll be fine soon.

Johnson,

Keep this experience in mind as you progress. It is possible to relearn physical movement and contact. I have had to do it. I can't control all environments but I have reduced my risk substantially.

The little ones will still be a risk but they can learn to help out.

Keep in mind that your brain's sensitivity will likely last regardless of your other recovery.

My best to you.
