The Husband and The Mushy Brain

Upon deciding to leave the Army, The Husband decided to finally go get his brain checked out. See, for the last 6 years, if The Husband hasn't written it down, he'd forget it. Turns out getting blown up a lot during dismounted patrols in Iraq makes your brain a bit more mushy than it should be. And that's what we call it at our house--Daddy has a mushy brain, not a Mild Traumatic Brain Injury, but "daddy's mushy brain", because well we're awesome like that.

Anywho, The Husband is a soon to be former Infantry Officer and Infantry Officer are not allowed to have any type of defect. Ever. So, he's been learning to live with this memory issue for the last 6 years. He did such an awesome job of it, I didn't realize to what extent he had trouble remembering things until he started telling me.
