Dear Dean, from what I've learned over the years, particularly when the brain is involved following trauma, it has to 're-make' many 'connections' as part of the healing process & this can take a while. Speech & Recognition can 're-connect' quicker than the fine motor skills required to draw & write. Short-term memory can be a bit of a slacker too! Reading back through your Thread, your beloved Judy does demonstrate progress being made. Having said that, I must emphasise again that I'm not a trained medic, just a Lover of Life & perpetual student of all that entails.
       Ann & I hope, with all our Hearts, that Judy continues to heal & it won't be too long before you can hold her in your arms once again.
                                          With Love,
                                                         Nigel & Ann.
