To all of my friends, I want to thank you all for the well wishes and prayers. The good news is that I recovered almost fully from my stroke. Apparently, it was a relatively small one. Then, on New Year's Eve, I began to feel weakness in my legs. It worsened during the day and after midnight, I called for an ambulance. Turns out that now have Guillain Barre Syndrome. (I had to look it up too...) Cannot walk or stand up. I got meds and am now in Mid Hudson Regional Center in Poughkeepsie for three weeks of rehab. Praying that I will walk out of here. Give thanks for every healthy day you have because your life can change literally over overnight. Peace..
