Billie Jo Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 Hi Everyone!! Great to meet some of you and learn your stories. I am pretty much a newbie here too. I do post when I can.. and do try to get here everyday. I am going to the blood doctor next week.. and he will give me the results of this test. They are not sure what causes my strokes. So.. there is always a test to do LOL Anyway.. I walk and talk and drive! My left side is a little weaker than my right.. but I exercise almost everyday! *hugs* Billie Jo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmalsich Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 Hi Everyone, Well it has been a year or so since my last message because I dropped off the New York area radar and moved to Matthews, North Carolina to start afresh and reduce our expenses. I spent alot of time packing and trying to sell a house in New York but wound up carrying 2 houses for awhile. We succeeded on selling our abode in NY just in time to miss the glut. Since we moved to North Carolina we have spent alot of time volunteering to help non-rofit organizations. I was a computer consultant before my stroke 4 years ago. During my effort to get better I built a home network, rebuilt 2 machines by crawling on the floor until I managed to walk again. I believe in never say die and there is always some hope to get better based on the amount you are willing, if able, to put into getting stronger and healthier. I will be turning 60 on Dec. 13th and am currently instructing and helping people older than me in a senior citizens center. My long term memory is great but ask me to remember 5 minutes ago and good luck with that. It appears that I am in good company because most of the seniors say they have the same problem. It appears my problems are mostly psychological at this point because i developed several phobias as a result of the stroke (like fear of driving, crossing bridges, fear of heights) Yet I have no fear of heights when my wife asks me for something that requies getting on a ladder :>0. I will All a Happy Holiday. I apologize to anyone that wished me happy birthday last year as I was not emotionally available.
