Re: The Good News Thread
Appreciate the good thoughts guys but I'm good. I got off easy when compared to what so many others have to go through. I only told a handful of people, I now know why people keep it quiet. I found quickly that when you tell people you have cancer they tend to bow their head and treat you like a dead man. I didn't want to go through that, I didn't want people to worry or to treat me differently. So I post about it on message boards, it's kind of therapeutic.

Re: The Good News Thread
Washington Commanders were clearly not the case-study for this research. But this is great, as I need any more reasons to be obsessed w/ sports:
Watching Sports Boosts Well-being and Improves Your Health, According to ‘Ground-breaking’ Research https://www.goodnewsnetwork.org/watc...king-research/ For any of you married folks, if your spouse gives you shit for too much sports, just say it's for your mental health. "What, babe, you don't support my mental health?"

The Good News Thread
Well had a real scare a few days ago. Had a stroke and suffered actually 4 different strokes. Totally dodged a bullet. Day 7 have moved into the rehab of floor and off the stroke wing. Other than some numbness on my right side it hadn’t affected of my swallowing or my breathing or any number of important areas. My speech went from an inability to remember my wife or daughters names to a few days later and able to actually text this and form a coherent paragraph. I consider myself so lucky today and got a new lease on life. It could have been so bad. Hug your friends. Hug your families. Enjoy every minute of your lifes. You only get 1.

Re: The Good News Thread
Thank u guys so much. Im all in for Week 1! Lol.
The numbness is going away. Tests are rolling in So everything is negative so far. No hole in the heart. Nothing really wrong with the heart. Not sure why it happened. I definitely need some diet changes. I will never smoke again, but thats a no brainer. Bad cholesterol needs to come down. I really dodged a bullet. Could have really been much worse. Strangest experience of my life. To go from not able to remember my Wifes name just a few days ago and watch the brain start working again. The dead spots in my brain are in the way so my brain is figuring out how to re- wire its self. It is really fascinating shit actually. One word of advice if you have a stroke, put ur phones down until u are less confused. You send some really confusing stuff to people even though you think ur making sense. Also Real bad idea to mess around with ur bank accounts and bills - ya will have time to work it all out later. Lol. |

Re: The Good News Thread
Glad you have your sense of humor. I hope the doctors and/or tests can provide some sort of checklist to put you in the best position to not have to go through this again any time soon.
