I was lucky, I am lucky, there are so many other people who hit their head and become low functioning humans or they die. Liem Neesons wife, actress Natasha Richardson, died from a head injury she received falling on a beginning ski slope. Our injuries and lucid moments prior to full term of injury were very similar.

I have to have a daily routines to keep track of things. Its not like I can't improvise and live a normal (ish) life but I have to be more aware about my surrounding, where I put things.

I won't ever play a pick up game of basketball or football due to the fact I just don't know if I would get a hit to the head, pushed, dropped, tackled, elbowed by someone. When I was in the military I got a few more concussions just going CQB and once just walked into a tank turret. You never know!
