Who is he?

Hiya everyone.

So this picture of me popped up on my Facebook memories.. I know it’s me pre haemorrhage but I don’t recognise “him”.. it’s a bizarre feeling to have no memories of the person I used to be.

Yes, I get it. I rarely look back at old photos as when I do it's always with a sense of envy for the 'other' me and the life I lived. It's a familiar face, almost like it's from a regular tv series, or someone that I knew long ago and quite liked... 🤔 Great photo Wazza ! Take care, Cat x

I posted something similar a few weeks back about not remembering my old capabilities. Early in my injury I used to think this is what it is like to be normal because I had lost my abilities to do things better than most people.

Now I can't remember what the pre-injury feeling is like, which is very strange. To me it is almost like I died and came back a different person but can't remember what the different person was.

I completely agree with you, I just call the time before my TBI my first life, trying to enjoy my current second life the best way I can😊 I never look backwards, focus on today, tomorrow and the future. Always remind myself there are millions of people throughout the world in worse conditions than me👍🏻

Yep, I understand, I tend to refer to me as mark l, and mark ll, strange really, because my name is not mark 😉

I say the other Waz when I’m talking about my other life 😬
