Oh, how I miss going to Daytona for Biketoberfest, just another thing the stroke has taken away, but me with only the use of 1 hand on a bike now would be nuts!

Tom

CONTRATULATIONS RICH!

I"M SO GLAD TO HEAR THIS TREATMENT IS WORKING FOR YOU!

GOD BLESS,

TOM

Rich,

Bottom line is you should have had the opportunity to decide for yourself weteher or not you wanted the tpa,In one of the above post it was mentioned that the hospital may not want to treat you if you file a lawsuit,however legally they could not refuse you treatment because of you filing a lawsuit, so in my opinion if you feel justified by filing a lawsuit, then by all means file one.

God Bless,

Tom

Jean,

I could not find Dora's post at universal designs could you leave a link for it?

Rich,

I personally want to Thank You,for keeping us updated on your progress with this therapy!We are all praying this works for you

God Bless you,

Tom

Mel,

I wonder if they used Lincolns device to get the Ceasars casino off a sand bar in the Ohio River a few years back?

Tom

Rich I can hardly wait to hear your experience so I can decide for myself if I should consider this treatment.

god Bless You,

tom

Fred,

I'm so happy things are looking up for you! :Clap-Hands: Yes God is still answering prayers for His people, as we both are prime examples, I too have just returned to work following an extended period off (4 years), where are you working now?

God Bless You always!

Tom

Mel,

I'll continue to pray for your daughter! I hope since you aren't very far away from Indianapolis, she is being treated at Riley Childrens hospital, they have an absolutely wonderful world renowned childrens hospital,and Like Pam's wonderful post says do not put too much trust in the neuropsych test, you can still find something that you can do and live a very productive life doing it! it is all up to you on how bad you want it, and how hard are you willing to work for it.

God Bless You,

Tom

Melissa,

I'm glad to see you are getting involved blogging! The next time I get down to the Grand victoria or the argosy I'll keep an eye open for your husband, I'm not sure which casino he works at but I'll keep an eye open at both.

tom

Denny,

We both know exactly where it came from.

God Bless,

Tom

Phyllis,

We will hate to see you go! I have enjoyed reading your post, and kind of getting to know you during our journey post stroke.

God bless you, take Care!

Tom

Vix,

Congratulations, :congrats:

That is wonderful!, How did you do it? since I can only use 1 hand I wear either slip on's or use the stretch shoestrings, but I'd still like to be able to wear normal ones.

Tom

Maybe it is time to get all of those unhealthy items out of the house( throw them in the garbage), buy something like celery or carrots to snack on, it may be tough but set your mind to it and do it( refuse to fail) :Tantrum:

God Bless,

Tom

:congrats:

I remember the first time I was able to put my regular jeans on it does make you feel great( like you are regaining some independance!), keep up the good work it will get easier with practice!

God Bless,

Tom

Gary,

Thanks for the link to the game! making it past that first obstacle was tough then it starts to get easier, what has been your top score so far?

Tom

Mary,

another much simpler method that I am using from The Biggest Loser book is to take your current weight x 7 and that will equal your daily calorie needs for weight loss, so far my wife has lost 30lbs and I have lost 25lbs.

God Bless,

Tom

Kim,

many people have memory problems following their stroke, keep a small journal of anything you feel is important like your doctors appointments,as far as what your blog blog what you want! don't worry about trying to blog about what anyone else wants, its your blog for crying out loud,whatever makes you feel better write about that, and who gives a da** about what anyone else thinks. : :Booty:

God Bless Ya!

Tom

Kim,

after reading all of you blog entries, It's no wonder why you have met such a good Man, the way you treat people shows that you are one heck of a woman, that any man would be happy to be with! I'm sorry you are so home sick, but you will learn to love Ky! I know I do,keep treating people right, and you will be fine!

Your friend,

Tom

Debbie,

I agree this Pt is an idiot, I'd never return to her place of employment, my feelings that if they hired this idiot then the whole facility is not worth returning to, I'm sure there are other facilities you could be seen at.keep up with your exercises on your own, I really believe we are our own best advocte.

God bless,

Tom
