Angee, Mark is dead on. A neurpsychologist can help you both understand what the deficits are and how to mitigate them. As you already know it is going to take you both and from what you have said you are both trying. Maybe your efforts are such they do not fully encompass The TBI reality. I have been return to work for a few months and I can say it has been grueling. Each days is like being ground down to a nub with nothing left for when I get home.

Is your husband getting any counseling? It will most likely have to include all members of the family old enough to go as he will need to, as Mark said, learn to cope. To much physical or mental exertion can be devastating to a TBI survivor with everyone in the home feeling it.
