Rehabilitation

Just doing my homework for the Cognitive therapist (taking for ever as laptop keeps moving the keys )

Is there any one else out there who left hospital after a coma - and never received nor was offered any

treatment or rehabilitation

Yes, my daughter has an hypoxic brain injury after attempted suicvide, and was left in a coma for days, we now have her at home in a PVS, but she has never been offered any rehabilitation although she shows signs of awareness now.

What kind of homework does your cognitive therapist give you?

[Hidden in reply to Negeen]

Relaxation therapy

Reviewing difficulties I have and how I respond to them

Reviewing my learning skills to encourage new pathways to develop in my brain I have now been referred back to my GP for referral to a neuro something (I forget what ) as it may be some of the physical problems for which no cause has been found may be neurological based to my accident

It also has been raised that a relapse in 1984 may have been caused by an accident at work when as a result of an electric shock I fell of the top is a machine luckily I fell onto a soft landing

All in all seeing the cognitive therapist was useful but it has raised other issues as mentioned in my other post I am keen to find out what damage was done to my brain 50 years ago so I can get closure.
