    I'm first trying to resize my pic. But before that I was trying to
     
    upload pic to this site and I keep getting an error. I found you have
     
    to pick the size of pic you want when you take the it. I followed
     
    the help on the site but something I am missing? I want to attache
     
    an album, I figured that but when I upload I don't know.
     
    I have pictures that I uploaded to my web page and went the URL
     
    to friends, they told me pic are great. So I know I can do it. But,
     
    oh when will that be?

    By Jeanniebean,

    I'll start by hope everyone's holidays treated them good. I don't get enthused
    with holidays ever since I moved Georgia away from all of my family. Reason
    for move was job transfer. Your parents are the nucleolus of family closeness.
    Especially when mom passes on. Mom passed in 2001 from cancer, that was
    the year I first stroked and didn't know it just lost my eyesight. So, holidays
    are just another day in the year.
    I have three siblings all older than I, and with families all in Ohio. My oldest
    sisters son got remarried just after Christmas, they sent me pictures of the
    beautiful day. It's nice to see my Nephew with his 10 year old son, a 5 year
    old stepson and his beautiful new bride.
    My oldest sister carries on tradition of a Christmas eve dinner and a New Years
    day dinner with her kids. Also inviting my brother and his wife. It's the only
    time of the year I call them and touch base with them all. My other sister
    passed on from MS in the 90's.
    Beside my one friend committed suicide, jumped off a bridge. He left a note
    at his house. His sister might one day share it with us. I just have a hard time
    accepting he could do this. I guess it is a lesson to me every thing on the outside
    may look just fine, he lived in a modest home on a large parcel of land worth
    $$$$. He had his own business, a appraisal. He was an advadit reader of sprirtual
    books. May he rest in peace.
    My friends parents that had strokes this year. T's mother was struck with a stroke
    in November, she was 82 fighting to live.My friend T called me when it occurred
    to ask me what should he expect. I gave him my knowledge of what I went threw
    and what Carl went threw. Told him about this site and magazine sites.
    Unfortunately she passed in early December.
    Another friends father was struck with stroke. In the summer she went and stayed
    with her mother hopping her father would return home. He was put in a rehab
    facility. She returned home going on with her daily life. Until one day her mother
    called notifying her of her fathers death. May he rest in peace.
    I am 55 years old. In reading all the forums and blogs and see how young stroke
    survivors are and when stroke hits. I don't know any statics but is seams people
    over say 70's have a much smaller chance of being a survivor but I am rutting
    for those to survive. Those that have had a stroke in childbirth I have never heard
    of until on this site. WOW! :cheer: I'm cheering for all those struck with stroke and
    as well as all caregivers.
    I've lived in Georgia now 20 years. When at the first few years winters were warm.
    I was able to just ware a sweater, as years gone bye it has gotten colder every year.
    I see other people looking more like northers down south. We get snow scattered
    on the ground, but at least I don't have to shovel it. But, we get the ice on the
    ground, and wicked winds.
    Bring on the warmer weather, my body accepts it much better and easier.
