Damn man, that's scary stuff. Hope you get the best outcome that you can.
thats some heavy stuff the brain is amazing the way it reworks it self to keep things working and all i had a right side stroke about 7 years ago caused by a hereditairy hart condition i lost most of my use of the right side and the left side was extremely week but im stubern and wouldent leave it alone im at around 50% of what i used to be as of now and i owe alot of that to the rc hobbie as long as the mind is working the rest of the body will come around in time
even if i have to use the palm of my hand to use the controler cause my hand wont work that day i still get out and run out a pack
life dosent get any easyer as you go through it you just get better at dealing with it
so stay strong and fight even if you dont phisicly get better you will get better at dealing with it

The day nurses wanted to put an alert on my bed if I tried to get out of bed too, night nurses didn't seem to think it was needed. Funny thing though, the second night at the shift change, the day and night nurses got into a disagreement over it, part of which was in front of Dad and myself:ror:
Hope things are going good for you, and remember what I said about wrenching on your R/Cs, see if the Drs think that would be ok as physical therapy if you haven't yet"thumbsup"

Great advice too, and when we met at PLBTF 2018 you seemed like you're doing well to me. Positive thoughts to you and everyone else, hope we're all doing better everyday!

Okay here's an update basically I'm done working I'm going to be I'm going to be retired with disability and even though they're giving me 15 to 16 months and I know I'll be around longer than that but it certainly won't be 10 or 20 years like I would like most all of my crawlers have been sold locally since I can't deal with shipping and I will still flow around from time to time when possible I am in the hospital for another 6 weeks with radiation chemo and rehab and then once I'm home I'll update again and probably do some light work in the garage and some light surfing on the site just to kind of keep in touch and keep my mind occupied I deeply appreciate all the Care concerns and prayers and certainly hope that I can make the most of this which I'm pretty sure I can I'm pretty stubborn individual again thank you for all of the support is deeply appreciated

heavy stuff yo what ever you do dont get rid of all your rigs your gona need them to aid in your recovery
you should get a micro crawler for the hospital room a simple blanket on a pillow can eat up a bettery before you know it then move stuff and you have all new terain
thanks yo i have good days and bad days and i have medication if i need to make a bad day a good one laitly ive been pushing my self and paying the price we are remodeling our houses out in johnson valley and its been kicking my butt its amazing how a 2 week job can turn in to 8 months and counting
i had a freind who had the same condition i do and got it around the same time i did hes not with us anymore im way more stubern than he was so im guessing being stubern is a good thing living like you have atleast 20 years left is good medicine for body and for the soul
dont give up doctors are good at cutting and making casts and running tests but there still practicing they dont have it down yet there just making educated guesses they dont realy know what to do ive got way more infomation on my own than from the doctors i also found out that some of the meds i was on was realy bad for my condition so watch them like a hawk your life depends on it

One of my dad's friend was a tow truck driver. One day a cable snapped and got him in the head pretty good. From that day his hair started growing pure white. The doctors told him he could have maybe a couple years if they put a metal plate in his head or maybe a couple of months without. He said "I ain't getting that ****ing thing put in my head just to die with." so he retired an sold off his tow truck and a bunch of stuff.
That was 40years ago and he is still tough as nails.

X2, great recovery advice!
Getting old sucks and we all have better days than others. Yes, gotta be determined to live and watch docs like a hawk, way too much uninformed pill pushing going on these days!!! Also ime many medical docs don't do any research/reading on their own, totally unaware of most treatments except PILLS. Look into natural therapies/healing, there've been many things known/discovered that are as good or better than pills with terrible side effects.

i figure its time for an update, things are not going well, they stopped the chemo due to problems with low platelette counts. all they are doing noe is radiation. they transferred me to a rehab facility and transport me to the treatments daily. this has been a nightmare, they used ambulance the first time then a medi-van a few times and yesterday they used uber which was a disaster. waited over 2 hours to be picked up to go back to the rehab.
when i got back i told them bluntly to never do that again! meals have been messed up and not what i ordered, never on time and always cold. i have 6 more days to del with this shit and then i get home.
my wife found a new treatment getting ready for human trials this fall. its call the tumor monorail by duke university, this looks very very promising and i am trying to get into the trials...i cant seem to link it with this tablet..but i will try

i also started a go fund me account to help my wife take care of funeral expenses since i lost my insurance from work,
