He Spent Months Recovering From A Traumatic Brain Injury. Then Died From The Coronavirus.
After Konciak moved in, Cathy struggled to speak with him. The phone would ring for 10-15 minutes and no answer, she said. On the few times they did speak, his speech had deteriorated rapidly. Once she heard a roommate coughing.
"He felt that we were complimentary," Cathy said."I was optimistic and trusting, he was more of a skeptic."After years working in the photography industry and then IT, Konciak's much-awaited retirement happened last April. He perfected making himself a cappuccino. They got an adored Labrador Retriever puppy, Casey.
For weeks, he was hospitalized in a near-comalike state, unable to talk, move or eat independently after suffering bleeding in his brain and a fractured skull. After six weeks, he'd lost 30 pounds, but had started to recover.
