As the days roll around we find ourselves quickly approaching a month since that ill-fated day. In some ways it seems just a few days ago, in other ways it seems like a lifetime. But the reality is that we have seen some steady progress in the past 10 days or so that give us belief that Darryl is working his way back through the fog.
I was talking last night to a specialist in this area, in fact someone who has worked for many years in intensive care and then rehabilitation. She described his current state as like being in a fog. As if he is aware of things around him but is unable to ’see’ his way out. That made sense to me and also helps to give meaning to the obvious frustration Darryl appears to show at times as if he wishes he could wake up.
