Here is an article from an English newspaper about dating after brain surgery. I guess it goes for any brain injury or illness with surgery or not.

Like the girl in the article i too would love to find a new boyfriend. I have had the idea of taking it slow.
The few guys I have met since my fiance left me when he just didn't like the new me have mainly been quick flings and
I have known that I need to get to know someone slowly if something is to come of it. Its too shocking for guys who like me at first but then after awhile find out I do have some issues. i know what I want but as i want it so bad I end up scaring people away. time to chill out a little and just let things work out. Have a read

" Hi
since my fall I went through a divorce and found the best girl.
we have been married for five years.
I totally understand all of your fears. It is our quirks that make us all diffrent. Try not to beat yourself up. sometimes hope can be hard to find but it is always out there. "

" Thanks for sharing the article, it was interesting and encouraging. Taking it slow is a great idea, building a friendship and mutual respect takes time. Don't underestimate what you have to offer! It is easy to see our own flaws, issues and imperfections and natural to feel a loss of confidence as we compare to what was, and struggle along with all that comes with brain injury. Hard enough to "love" (or even know) the new me, I'm scared to death of dating! Kudos to you for your courage and for knowing how important that is to you :) "
