Sir Stephen: Did I ever tell you that you look darn good. Age happens whether we want it or not!! Hugs, Leah

You are doing one of the most important things. Take one day at a time. God says not to worry; he'll do thaf for us. The first year was the worst for me, physically and emotionally. Don't be afraid to ask questions here. We are all experienced survivors.Til Later. Somewhere there a page of classic postings.If you cant find it email Maria or another senior mention. Hugs, Leah

I'll write more later but the first year is the worst because you are getting used to physical and emotional changes. I made it thru the first day (a lot of PT and sleep) ONE DAY AT A TIME. God says not to worry about tomorrow so I pray to have the strength and courage to make it through TODAY. If you don't know the sereniy prayer let me know and I'll send it to you.
Dont try ...

I'm not up to date yet on the new format or the new way of logging. So with that said, I've had ups and downs and what I call "trip anxiety" My therapist understands since the last trip we took I ended up in the hospital. Anyhoo, we leave Sat. Aug 7 for a week to Phoenix. I hope to see Kimmie Anderson and she can set me straight on the "new webset. Love you all. Leah

I am so happy for William. I was devestated when I found out I couldn't swim due to the brain damage done mainly to coordination; my right and left sides are so different they cant work together. I do walk in the water as long as it's a pool. But a big harrah for William and you too. I will be thinking of you as you swim. I'm goal right now is maybe float. Leah

Who changed our format. Don't you know we hate changes!! I guess I am starting top to bottom> Brain attack in June 2006 and yesterday I had a dead big toenail removed. It would let the new one grow in, so now I need another kind treatment for at least a couple weeks. BTW, my 2nd epidural is not doing as well as the first so I guess I'll call them. I hate to go back in. Leah
