A friend of mine got encephalitis a little over a year ago and had much the same symptoms and brain infection. The doctors brought him back from it very slowly to give him a better chance to being normal for him, or as close to it as possible. One of his symptoms was instant dementia, that had him doing all kinds of crazy things. He spent 2 months in the hospital and rehab, then got to come home. He has a little short term memory loss, but is otherwise fine. He is in his 70's, so he is a little older than Steve. Hopefully, Steve will have an equally good outcome. His friend from B-J who made the first video said the best thing we can do for him is go to You Tube and watch, and hit the Like button on his videos. That's how he makes his living, so doing that for him will surely help.
