    More health problems

    Thursday evening at 8:00 pm I suffered a stroke and was hospitalized. I am back home trying to recuperate. My entire left side is without any feeling and nearly non non functional. Typing is a real chore with only one hand.

    Doctors say I should recover completely but gave me no timetable for that. I was doing so well with my battle with cancer and have been feeling pretty good lately and now I have to deal with this. I actually feel like I was run over with a very large truck.

    Hang in there my friend, I hope you get better soon. Just relax and take it easy for as long as you like, surround yourself with loved ones and things that contribute to your mental peace.

    Ken,

    Having only 1 hand working means that you'll need to alternate between typing and Bud Light. I hope your recovery is quick and that you regain full use of your left side.
