Subarachnoid Survivor: Musings From A Brain Hemorrhage Survivor: Recent Episodes
Jeff Good
Welcome to the Subarachnoid Survivor: Musings from a Brain Injury Survivor, where I explore my injury, share my experiences and both my and other's responses.
Musings from our annual trip to the exact same cottage, exactly one year later. The brain of an average 50 year-old.
Gratitude for what I have and its "sufficiency" (Dayenu) and grieving for what I've lost, and sharing with others.
New thoughts on lingering deficits and "marks," a sweet tooth, my good fortune and links to other's misfortune - the not so final episode.
On understanding others and how they I see things through clearer eyes. And as my final episode a thank you to family and friends for all their unbelievable love and support.
On living now, on being present, and learnings in the ICU and from the ICU nurses and patients.
When nearly dying doesn't suck - or the good (and sometimes humorous) things that can come from nearly dying.
In this episode I talk about how the road to recovery looks when you're on it, and also share an ode to the love of family and friends.
In this episode I describe my girlfriend's drive to the hospital, my initial hospital experiences, and being on the brink...
Episode 2, where I describe the sensations of the initial injury and the visit to the first local hospital.
