Do you think this might help your husband?

That looks fascinating. Not too sure it's application would help in hub's case, his deficits are predominantly memory impairment, both long-and short-term, although it might help with the damaged areas that affect the production of certain hormones. Certainly worth looking into. Have you read Mapping the Mind? Very informational, and I highly recommend it to anyone dealing with brain injury from whatever source.

No, I haven't. Although I'm so far behind in my "You should read" list, but this sounds like something that would help us. Thanks

It's by Rita Carter, and it's not a book you have to read from cover to cover. I've gone through it three times now, and still leave it out where I can pick it up and look through it. Lots of "aahhh hah" moments for me.
