I've known some other teens that could have benefitted from the same procedure. Okay, I know this not a joking matter but sometimes you've gotta laugh so you don't cry... What a huge relief to have this hurdle behind us. We love to read of Forest 's recovery progess each day.

Hoping he has a chance to really rest for a bit after this and not feel too much immediate pressure upon waking to keep making great strides. All he's been through in 8 weeks is exhausting to think about, let alone live - our vote is for a little respite and regrouping before the next push ahead. Here's to some relaxing time (even if brief) for all of Team 44!

It has truly been an inspiration and daily reality check for those of us looking in from the outside.<br /><br />RE: Memory. A few posts back you shared a touching story about your current struggle to remember things. Hang in there, that will all come back in time...in the meantime feel free to leverage this newly found talent to play plenty of jokes on those around you. Being from the same gene pool (Grandpa Doc's gene pool), I know you have an innate ability to pull this off. :-)<br /><br />Continue to heal and we'll continue to pray.<br /><br />Love you,<br /><br />Troy, Jessica and CamdenTroyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10853658493671551188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2555377803207503556.post-71484173602760547062011-03-14T15:38:05.128-04:002011-03-14T15:38:05.128-04:00I am so glad to see that Forrest came through this...I am so glad to see that Forrest came through this surgery so successfully. His physical recovery sounds amazing, and the staff is certainly reassuring about his cognitive flights of fancy. I like your description of "fantastic confabulations!" We continue to recieve contributions in Forrest's honor at UVA - this means so much to us.
