This week has been busy with rehabilitation 4days out of 5. This rehabilitation has included vestibular & physical therapy 2 times, PTSD psychologist, today physiatrist and my jog/walking workout 2 days since weekend. I just realized that this week was the first week that I did not have to ask myself 500 times a day what the day or date is!!!!People would say what is the date and I could answer them...Like BOOM!!!Is this a small thing to be happy about or huge?
