Tuesday afternoon was a very good day for Lucas. He went to school, rested when needed and in the middle of friends reintroducing themselves, he says "it came back!" He said he looked around and it "popped" and he new them.
He had a headache right before the "pop" and then it was gone and the memory was there. There are spotty places yet and he's still restricted from everything but the relief on his face to be able to see someone and know them and their name was priceless.
He's got a clearer picture of the day of the injury. He will come up and ask every once in a while if what he remembers is correct. He doesn't quite trust his brain yet. We wanted to wait and see if he would lose ground overnight as he slept as had been the pattern but he was up and telling us "I still remember!"
The whole remembering and school took it's tole, he was on the couch and snoozing most of the night and headed to bed early (on his own). Either way there was one excited kid headed out to school this morning.....some pretty excited grown ups too!
Wonderful news!
