Me

I was placed in a medical induced coma for 2 months in 2003. The thing is I had never been sick in my life other than a bout of flu or diarrhea. I “woke up” blind and paralyzed from waist down. The team at the Mayo Clinic did their best. I did regain sight in my right eye and after physical therapy I learned to walk. (Before the coma I was a pretty good athlete) I lost memory and my job as a prosecutor. My wife divorced me taking my newborn son with her. At first I was bitter, but God has kept me from losing it. 😀. My problem is I have so many questions because of memory loss. People tell me about how I “used” to behave. It’s like I have no frame of reference. Can anyone relate?
