Thinking about him calling his wife and why he did when he did....
I had a decent concussion when I was 12. For about 12 hours afterwards my brain could not retain information. Example - I would ask someone where I was, they'd tell me, I'd nod in agreement and then 2 minutes later I would ask again. I remember nothing about these hours (going to the hospital, assessment, my mom meeting me at the hospital) still to this day. Any information I have was told back to me later.
Around 15 hours after I hit my head, I can clearly remember waking up in the hospital, was able to retain information and recite my name, phone number, the name of the prime minister. It was like a switch came back on and I was back up and running again.
Perhaps this is similar to Danny's experience. He was awake and conscious for the few days while travelling but didn't really "come to" until he was in California and remembered his wife's name and number.
