My first practical placement of the year was an interesting one. I am working with the Community Re-entry Program (CRP), designed to support adults that acquired brain injury with fitting into the society. It is tragic to hear some of the tales these people have. Successful people with a bright future ahead of them just lost all in merely one accident, some of which is not even their fault. And to live with the wondering thought of where they could be today if the accident never happened. I have such admiration and respect for these people and loved every minute of interaction with them.

Just a funny conversation between one of the adults in the program, Aaron*, Beth (my fellow classmate) and myself.
*His name changed to protect his privacy.

Beth: Do you remember her name? (points to me)
Aaron: Aaaahhhh... Does it start with an M?
Beth: No.. With an S.
Aaron: Aaaahhh...
Me: Center of the universe?
Aaron: Saturn!
Beth: Hhhhmmm... No, but you are close.
Aaron: I don't know!
Me: It's Sun.
Aaron: Oh!

Five minutes later, Aaron looks at me...

Aaron: Aaaarrrgghhhh!!!
Me: You forgot my name?
Aaron: Aaaarrggghhh!!!!
Beth: Center of the universe.
Aaron: I don't know!
Me: What gives you light?
Aaron: The sun?
Me: That's it. Sun!

Hahaha.... He forgot my name again 10 minutes later. Oh well... I have the whole year to try. It has been a very different experience and am definitely looking forward to having more of it.

Anyway, had lifegroup at the Glenelg beach today. Finally!! Have been wanting to go since touchdown. Good fun...
