Hi again everyone

It has been a lazy weekend for Kyle, lots of sleeps and eat and sleep again. It was such a shitty weekend who wouldn't just wanna sleep. Kyle continues to improve and eating like a frigging horse this is good and hopefully next week maybe feeding tube will be gone. Yahoo.

another great day for Kyle. Worked really hard today and body is getting stronger each day. Spelled the alphabet with his right hand the weak one today and did awesome. Had a great evening with all his buddies and laughed till couldn't breath. He is so lucky to have such great friends.

Sounds like Kyle is working toward finding his new normal. He is so fortunate to have a loving, caring family, friends and community support to make him laugh and feel life again.

Would'n it be a wonderful thing if every stroke survivor had the kind of friends that could help them regain a measure of life again.

Hay we all do and it's called the Stroke Community of which the Stroke Network is a very large part. It is vvvii.

vvvii is a new phrase and stands for "very, very, very. important indeed"

So always remember that All of our family, friends, support communities (like the Stroke Network) and all of our stroke buddies (that includes caregivers) are VVVII.

So a BIG THANK YOU to all of our families, friends and stroke buddies here and everywhere.

Smiles
