When I got home I really don't remember very much. I still had no diagnosis and life was still going to go on...bills, eating, using the restroom, period (this has been a real problem health wise), being alone, just surviving. I was helped to my bed and all I remember for the next week is my daughter who graciously made me something to eat and gave me snacks and drinks which lay on the bed next to me. I ate but I don't remember it. I do remember having to use the bathroom which was a potty seat
This is a copy of what happened when I had my stroke that I posted in my introduction. It is the beginning a new journey.
I had a Cerebellar Stroke on July 5, 2015 at 11:30 pm on my bedroom floor. I was 43 and the stroke was on both sides of my cerebellum. Since that day it has been a roller coaster that started with the tallest, most scary drop and loop you can imagine. I've been begging for months to get off and it never stops just slows down. When the stroke happened, I just collapsed. I
I got inspiration for this blog by reading another blogger's post on his blog and I found it interesting. So here it goes...
1. I'm adopted
2. I grew up in the country in Tennessee.
3. I am afraid of clowns.
4. As a child we found a puppy on the freeway so "Freeway" was his name.
5. I got a baby goose one Easter. He grew up and was named Pretty boy...as an adult he was not nice.
6.My second car was a 1982 Datsun 280 ZX with T-tops...I loved that car.
7. I have two bir
We moved into the house in February of 2014. I retrieved all the vital things out out of their box homes and began to fill my new little abode that was heaven sent. Before we actually moved into the home we (Myself, my Daughter, my Husband, my Mom, and my Step Dad) wiped down all the walls and baseboards and then painted the two bedrooms. My daughter picked out her color(a beautiful bright lavender) and I picked out our bedroom color (Sandstone) and we brightened up the rooms quite a bit. We pai
As I was saying, my boss talked to me one day about a friend of hers. He and his wife were looking to move and he was going to rent out his house. She said she would get all the information from him and let me know. My manager (boss) has been my friend sorta and I have worked with her 8 out of the 1 years. We used to live in the same apartment bldg. just 2 floors between us and we have sorta been buddies for a long time. When she called me back she told me that she had let her friend know that I
Last entry I remembered how active I was and how much I did and was responsible for. Looking back helps me see that I was important. I touched a lot of souls I think and I know they touched mine. So let me back up just a bit. I had a really hard year leading up to my stroke maybe year and a half. I have struggled with bouts of recurrent depression for many years but through therapy I learned to control this pretty good. So when I lost my apartment (yes I was evicted because the rent kept going u
My first step here will be a very happy hello. :happydance: I had my stroke last year the day after 4th of July. Bilateral Cerebellar Infarct. I was 43, just helped close down all the stores in our city (which were the only ones in the state) where I had been working for close to 10 years. I was the bread winner as you call it in my home. Active, feeling the best about myself probably ever, looking forward to a future that I felt could only get better. Prime of my life I guess. Even with past
