Update: 10:30pm on 3/22

It's been a busy few days. Forrest had his first full day on his own at Shepherd Pathways, where he is doing a full day of outpatient therapy Monday through Friday. We are all adjusting to the new schedule, new people, and new living situation at the apartment. He is still confused about the new situation, as are we all at times. His cranioplasty scar is healing, we have a checkup with the surgeon tomorrow. We hope to be able to post a longer update soon, we're spending our time with him and figuring out the new schedule and situation. It was great to have Peyton visit over the weekend!!

Love,
Austin and Team Forrest

  3. As confusing as this transition must be, I can see how it will underscore your move home! I continue to marvel at the thoughtful and obviously successful approach to healing brain injured folks. Your pictures tell a great story...facial swelling gone, beautifully healing scar, gorgeous hair growing right away.

    I hope that all will become familiar and easier for all of you as Forrest reclaims his health and independence.

    Prayers, love and admiration abound for you at our house!
