Days go by, i'm definitely flying high..

I'm never going to reach a whole goal to 100% recovery, no one ever does.. You remain weaker than before, struggling with an acute brain injury, living life's given challenges still telling people you're 'fine' and not 'too tired' continuing to prove to people who've stuck by you and believe in you that you can do things you did before. 

You get better happier and somewhat stronger in your weaker body.. 

You gain memories in a new pathway your brains created. Whether you like it or not, it'll be you; your personality, motivation, initiative, life and it's all been created by you. 

Even when you're doubting yourself you've created this brain so stand by something you once lost.

You stop using things you were so dependant on before; outside and in the house; shower stalls, hand rails and so on.. Things that you would assume only older people would need or use.

Because I guess you thought this is something that only happens to older people.. 

Didn't you? 

You start to walk more, regardless of how your leg; works, bends, straightens and touches the floor 'normal' enough for others to compliment something you worked so hard to do. 

Is it normal enough for you? 

Are you proud? 

You don't show the; depression, anxiety, stress or struggles because it makes you look as weak as you feel.. Inside and out. 

You stand as strong and straight as you can, in a body and life that once tried to give up on you.

Now you're flying higher than you ever thought you'd be.
