8 ball corner pocket ( forgot to post some months past)

The title has nothing to do with anything I am going to say except that it has been over 8 months now since my accident. I realized after reading back a few posts that I have not given much of an update on my progress/health. I don't want to bore you all so I will say it as fast as I can.
After more than 200 days with open wounds on my head, I am all healed up. Due to the rotation of my scalp, I have some hairs growing down and sideways instead of up. this is cause for very minor ingrown hair pain mostly when I shampoo my head. As you read before, I now have a trauma induced cataract. While looking into that more they found a very small hole in my retina ( Macular). The docs will watch that and I may have to have a retina surgery down the road. My leg coordination is getting better. I have noticed that when I do very strenuous workouts, ie climbing San Marco Pass and Painted Cave roads on my bike, my legs feel a little funny the days following. I am sure this will pass. I go back Dec 10 for a check up where they will ask me (again) if I want to have the tissue expansion and all that to get my hair line back somewhat the way it was. At this point it is something I do not want to do. Another 6 or more surgeries and countless trips to Sherman Oaks is not something I want to do right now.
Thanksgiving: This is my favorite holiday. We planned to make a trip to Mexico to be with my folks but my mom was again having a hard time and had to go back into the hospital. Have you ever held someone is such high esteem that words can't do them justice? Words like strong, loving, kind, non-complaining, selfless, tough, and faithful are close but they seem flat at the same time. Those were a few words that describe my mom and my dad. If its not my mom's strong, tough, non-complaining grit its my dad's loving, kind, selfless, faithful actions that leave me speechless. In an era where the average marraige lasts 7 years, and you learn that my parents have been together for 56 you get the feeling you are among the "greats" when it comes to relationships. It's not just the 56 years but 56 years of loving, devoted kindness to each other that sets them apart. How can I learn to love like this? Do I have what it takes to leave the comforts of home for several months and be at the side of Heather 24/7? And when I say 24/7, I mean every moment. A few weeks ago as we visited them, Jeff heard my parents getting up in the middle of the night for yet another shuffle to the bathroom. Mom needed help getting her IV and stand into the bathroom. Mom looked up at Dad in the dark and said "thanks for loving me" and my dad responded to her " honey, I love you so much." That may seem like a typical husband wife routine but when you put it in the context of where they were and what time it was, and what they have gone through, it made we want to cry. 1 Corinthians 13 comes to mind.
