Thank you, sir. I'm not spending much time in F1 forums. For odious, um, obvious reasons.

Yeah, seems you are still mending some of those slight mental issues and fine motor control while typing

Sorry, had to correct you. That’s how far down that forum has gotten; either you’re for him, or you’re against him. You will miss nothing, much less learn anything there.

This reminds me of the Mark Twain quote, "Never argue with idiots, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience."

Wait, so even MORE stuff if something untoward should happen? I'm gonna need a bigger storage space

Dock space in Monaco during the Grand Prix is most definitely a rented thing at insane prices, and not covered under "stuff" or something that requires storage space. Plus, they probably wouldn't even let hoi polloi like you and me into the marina.....

Walking unaided now. It ain't pretty but it is a necessary transition. Balance as wonky but about 85% good. Raw strength, lifting weights is good. Functional and dynamic strength is wonky, as well. I can do 2 push-ups and plank for 30 seconds.

No therapy tomorrow. Back at it on Monday.

vreihen16 · 10-22-2022, 07:03 PM

When I was in the hospital back in 2016 with my ticker issues, they had me restricted to bed 24/7 as a fall hazard. I was walking with a hurry-cane for a few weeks after being released, and making dashes between points to grab doors/walls for a month before I could walk semi-normal again. Keep pushing!!!!!

Thanks for the insight. I'm able to walk unaided but keep the cane on me for safety. I'm still wobbly in my moves to the left.

Butbutbut, we're the stewards on MK's yacht, they have to let us in, at least to the harbor. Maybe not off the ship, but in the harbor. We can RoShamBo for who gets to drive the tender.

Had my Neurology follow=-up today and got a completely negative read on any residual effects from the stroke.

My brain is back open for business and I'm fully active in my role as Chief of Stuff for BP-OT. If anyone has Stuff that you want, let's get it from those who have it...after all, you deserve it all!!

Esteban · 11-16-2022, 03:31 PM

^^ Good to hear.

Stroke occurs when blood supply to brain is interrupted or reduced. This deprives oxygen and nutrients supplied to the brain, causing brain cells to die.

So leaking or bursting of a blood vessel / haemorrhage does not cause strokes? I guess I need to go back to my neurologist and tell him he doesn't know what he's talking about because an MD on BP knows better. Thanks for the insight.

Thank you for the offer - there is an individual on these forums who has a 2007 V10 m6 that I desire. When can you effect delivery from him to me?

In all seriousness, very good news, glad you are back up to full strength.

I'm mostly a litker and have been away for a while but yikes! Glad you are recovering and doing well!!!

I have familial HTN and my readings were higher as of late but not uncontrolled in the traditional sense. The prior weeks were 70+ hr work weeks and prior to that 2weeks of travel. All in all the exhaustion, bp spike and stress got me.

Slow down. Keep yourself in good nick. It's critical.
