You will do well BR as you have a good support system. My experience with TBI tells me that you may not ever be the same Criss as you were a few months ago.....but the different Criss will be stronger for the experience. You will learn to overcome the challenges...and learn to cope with them to make your life tolerable and livable again.

I remember a man I worked with who was a TBI patient. He could not speak, but he could write out his thoughts. An interesting thing was that his perception difficulty only allowed him to see 1/2 the page of paper...all of his writing stopped dead center on the page, and he would start a new line. If we turned the paper around, he could not "see" the stuff on the other half of the paper.

Your recovery will be a slow process, and it will be an ongoing one...but you will cope. Just remember to vent to friends and family now and again. It will help you.
