Things have taken a turn for the worse again… well maybe not the worst… but not very good.

The 24 observation period for someone suffering from a brain injury is definitely wise. Although she hasn’t relapsed, Jan has been moved to the psychiatric ward for further observation. To put it delicately, she’s having episodes where she is not able to clearly understand the world around her.

She spoke with my mom over the phone for a long period of time about several nonsensical and mixed up stories. This was mixed in with very level headed responses and what seems to be momentary lucidity.

However, it now appears as though we will be sifting through the damage for more than 24 hours… and it could be awhile before things return to normal… and I hope they do.

Love your family.

Love each other.

This is just a brief update as I’m unable to spend a lot of time writing another dramatic story. (I know some of you will appreciate that.)

Yesterday my aunt started speaking. Jumbled a bit. A little confused but speaking. She went through two MRAs yesterday so I didn’t get to visit. So this morning I arrived at the hospital to visit and arrived at an empty room. She was getting tests done… and in moments came around the corner in a wheel chair with the nurse and said, “ADAM!” We visited for over an hour and she’s doing great. Doctors say she had something called an “Aphasia” which might have been brought on by a combination of stress and the medication she’d been taking. She sounds like she’s almost at 100 percent. It really is crazy. I’m so glad she’s doing better. They’re keeping her for 24 hour observation and she could be released tomorrow.

Have a great day everyone.
