Hello everyone greetings from Ayrshire
I'm Ali ( Alistair) retired for 18months and have my lovely wife Heather at home who is my carer.
I had a accident 4 years ago and damaged my brain. I was in hospital for 5 months and was unaware who I was or any of my family. I was heading into a nursing home as my wife was told I was a risk living at home. Something shook me awake 2 weeks before I was due to leave hospital and I was past well enough to get home 2 weeks later. I was a very lucky man 🙂
Hope life is always treating you all with respect and kindness
Regards Ali

Hi @Alimcg66 and welcome to the community!
Blimey, what an amazing miracle that was! Have you managed to recover your memory since or did it come back at the time?
What are you spending retirement doing? 😊
