Hi Debbie

I know its hard but its the 1 step forward that counts.

Most people I know would say 2 steps back

20seems either a typo or a very negative way of looking at it.

Have you done any mindfulness? For yourself.

Please remember that Marks journey is going to be measured in years and every step forward is a huge thing for him and for you.

No problem, sometimes when I am at a low point, I think yep I am down, it may take me a while but I will get up.

Mind you as i get older getting up out of the chair is an achievement

Yep,

A Head Injury is like that, but as Chumbawumba said "I get knocked down, but I get up again, nothings going to ever keep me down" always remember that

Keep on keeping on, it's all you can do. And soon the steps forward overtake the backward footsteps

All my best

Hi Debbie.

sorry things are not going so well. On the bright side you have only gone 19 steps back. That one step forward does count.

Also without things going bad we wouldn't notice how good the good times are. Keep going the good times will come.

Pax.
