I went to the most amazing dr today....

I went to the most amazing dr today--she was a trauma neuro surgeon and I will tell you her story later. But , first, I have to write what she said about me. She had me hold a piece of medal in one hand and tested my other palm with a pen like apparatus. From the testing she reported many things about my body- my body is angry from all the change it has gone through, I had the cavernous angioma removed and my brain is struggling to adapt to all the new changes, ,my brain needs time for all the damaged bridges to repair, I have to learn to methods to work my body and my body has been compensating a life time dealing with doing it wrong, people have to be patient with me while I recover, I sometimes say things that I don't mean to say. I am still in the early stages of healing since my brain surgery was so major, worse than car accident trauma, similar to Congressman Gabi Giffords minus the gun shot. My body needs to learn sensory integration since I am out of whack. It will be awhile before I won't have double vision, better balance, coordianation.
It was like she was talking directly to my heart and my brain and it made me cry. It was like the first time someone talked to my body and said, you've been through a lot and it is time for a little grief therapy. Don't rush. Be patient as you heal.
