Epilogue
"Larry still becomes affected by 'bumps in the road' so we are still in the process of steps forward and backward. He may always be affected by 'bumps'. But all in all, I believe he has done well considering his injuries. I also believe that having him do cognitive exercises at an early stage after his injury increased his recovery at a quicker rate than may have happened had he received no cognitive therapy until a later date."
......
"I'm sure there will be many things we will have to learn to deal with; his inability to cope when things don't go well, resulting in his frustration, anger and irritability; his tendency to be self-centered; rigidity in his thinking; being unmotivated and his memory difficulties."
.......
"Although he may never be the person he was before his accident, who he has become is better than the alternative might have been. There may still be times when I will have to remember not to take things personally when he is going through a frustrated period; and there may also be times ahead where it will be two steps forward and one step back. Hopefully over time he will learn to cope with the many 'bumps' there are in every road."
