Only he can figure out whether or not it will work. He seems to be optimistic.

It's to be expected that it will take him longer to get the same results. I'm sure that he's keenly aware of the situation. He may have to do things differently, and that may take time to figure out. Instead of deciding what you think, ask him what he thinks. Don't be afraid of discussing it with him. You can probably strategize with him about how to approach challenges. You may have to think outside of the box. Be patient.

Django Reinhardt played guitar with only three fingers.

I have a good sized brain tumor and epilepsy. I completed 9 years of college, studied several subjects, and have a master's degree. I can do things that most healthy people can't do. Of course, there are things I can't do, and things that I'm really bad at - but nothing is worse than struggling and having people always doubting you. They tend to judge you on your failings and ignore your successes.

This is something that he has chosen for himself, let him figure it out. You sound like you are doing your best to help him.
