It has been such a journey

"It has been such a journey"

About: Edgware Community Hospital / Neurological Rehabilitation Centre Northwick Park Hospital / Neurology

(as a service user),

Permanent brain damage, huge life changes and having to deal with problems when accepting my health now is and has been hard enough.

I had viral encephalitis and was in hospital for almost a month. I was treated with patience and understanding. I was discharged earlier because my father had passed away and his funeral was the day after I was discharged.

I didn't know about my father until 4 days before his funeral. I was then near bed bound for 3 months whilst my husband was breaking me financially.

I was so lost and couldn't live. I was so lost. I didn't remember things or language. It's too much to explain on here but it has been such a journey.
