intro

I survived a stroke on feb 3rd, 2007 and this is my attempt to chronicle that event and everything since that day..

edit:aug 15, 2008 i really did feel that way when i wrote the intro, honest. but way to much time has passed to do this properly. mainly due to my memory failing me. i'll see what i can do.

gonna try a pushup soon

just about 20 minutes ago, and for no partucular reason i decided to see if i could manage a light switch. i succeeded and then spent the next 15 minutes or so, rather giddy, much too giddy for a man alone in his home, to be legal, anyhoo, i hobbled around my house gleefully turning on and off every light switch in the house.

did i mention 'using my 'bad' arm? the paralyzed arm. the left arm and hand.

perhaps i had something in my right hand and didnt feel like putting it down.

the next part of this post should be me explaining how i got by before and the significance of this feat, but im really not all that much into typing at the moment.

let me just say it involves me not wantng to sell my bowflex. stubborn? maybe?

peace
