10 pm Sorry I haven’t written in the past few days. I am the “costumer” for my high school’s drama club so I get a little crazybusy during play week.
Things with Steve continue to get back to normal. He is still going to outpatient therapy at Helen Hayes – occupational therapy and speech. He is working on short term memory tasks. He told me the last time that the therapist asked him to sort a deck of cards into the four suits as she read him stories and asked comprehension questions. Steve said he is not sure he could have done this before the accident! LOL!
His eye is still getting visibly (pun intended) better every day. It is over half open now, and he can blink it just like the other one. He does have double vision but he tries to get the eyes to work together. He will also put on the eye patch on his good, right eye to make the left eye work harder.
Steve is the most motivated person I know. He plays the computer games and card games suggested by his therapist constantly. Steve remains positive and in good spirits most of the time. He went to work at the Department Store today for a few hours.
