Rowan is still in the Rehab Unit, but we are starting to discuss a return to home. It's a multi-step process.



BTW - If you're wondering whether Rowan can remember the accident. The answer is no. Evidently, quite often in situations like this, the brain stops recording memories for a period of time. Plus he was placed into an induced coma shortly after the accident.

This article explains some of why a person can't remember their accidents.

At this point, he remembers some of February, and possibly little bits into early March. So far, there's no indication of any memory in the approx. 2 weeks leading up to the accident.

After the accident, his memories start when he was coming out of Post Traumatic Amnesia about 5 weeks ago. Those memories are a little muddled, but he can describe enough that I know where and when.

However, he has been told what we know about the accident ... which isn't a lot.

As for other memories, old and new, still rather patchy. But it can take a while.
