He is really determined to do his best to get better, especially because he is desperate to come home. He has been continuing to walk around when he can but is still having a lot of trouble with communication, which is why he is unable to write this himself. He is speaking fluently but is still speaking in what sounds like a new language with a couple of English sentences and words mixed in. He is writing in a similar way. He does understand things though and I can usually work out what he is talking about. Unfortunately, I am only allowed to visit him for 45 minutes per week at the centre which is tough for all of us but we'll just have to make the most of it.
Hopefully, all his efforts will pay off and he will eventually surprise you all by sending his own message. Thank you all for your support.

Many thanks for the update Fiona. It must be hard on you and family not being able to spend more time with Richard. But he will get there with the help of the experts and with your, and family, support and love.
Take care.
