I've been in a similar position to you. I was in an accident and woke up missing a quarter of my skull.

Props for getting back to servers and code as a part of your recovery. The recovery process for me took a long time and a lot of work. I imagine you are in a similar position and question whether things will ever be the same again, the same way I have. I don't know your particular situation very well, true. But for me, recovery not only took a lot of exercise, balance routines, relearning vocabulary, and a couple of surgeries; but it also took a lot of faith.

Shoot, you mentioned your projects, I did something similar. I found a hypervisor on Craigslist and set up Apache Cloudstack. I pushed myself to learn DevOps skills on it, Jenkins, terraform, cloud-init, and I'm still working on a AWS DevOps Cert.

But I would like to say kudos on your work. I think that doing it during your recovery is an extremely difficult prospect, but I do think that it pays off in the long run.

tldr; I think your recovery is coming along great. You may have quite the ways to go down that road, we don't really know. But until you're fully recovered, you will be in our hearts, minds, and prayers.
