Dear friend,

First of all, you can use the word "crappy" all you wish. Have you contacted the doctor regarding how you are feeling? Please do so - we don't want anything to happen to you.

When you are feeling better/spunky again you will restart your work towards your goals.

(((hugs)))

don't put so much pressure on yourself. there is no way you can put a time limit on your recovery time. I have been told that after you have a stroke you are 50% more likely to have another one than someone who has not had a stroke. Call your doctor now on the symtoms you are having. God bless and keep us informed on how you are doing

i've decided to not put a time limit on my recovery, i now just think that it will come to those who wait. but please see your doctor to find out whats happening. we are getting the heat here in aussie so i know how the weather messes you arond. thake care

[so sorry that you are feeling crappy. maybe it is the weather - maybe you are recovering from your stroke at your own pace - just like all of us. please don't create more stress for yourself by setting deadlines. do the best you can and i bet your kids will be fine with that. if you are feeling real crappy - which is a great descriptive word - and you are not comfortable with your docs diagnosis - go back again - see a different doc - whatever it takes to get the answers you feel comfortable with. please don't be too hard on yourself - just do your best - know one can expect more. i hope you feel better soon.kathy
