Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

Update! Stroke! July 23 2020
Permalink  

smilebiggrin Decided to give an UPDATE. Three months ago; the first couple days of ICU I could not speak;very slowly I spoke a very little; a word misspelled here and there. Until I left the Hospital I continued speaking more;but just maybe two or three words together. Oh I was so distressed; doh; but I kept until I had to stop due to wicked headaches!! I had a large area of my left temperol Infarct that died with a small blood clot. Had an appointment on June 9th with another scan. So far so well until December due to to much radiation! 

winkblankstare I still continue working with my Speech Therapy person and have her once a week for an hour until mid September. I have begun to get better speaking with more sentences; my hardest is when I speak to fast and transpose words. I will not give up though. 

winkwinkHaving this PC and Word processor has helped me so much' I would not know if I came this well!  confuseconfuse  PIEERE

Keep going for as long as you can, then do 10% more. The brain has amazing recuperative powers. Best of luck and keep us up-to-date.

  I haven't kept up on my Stroke health! wink I have been doing somewhat better. I speak more fluently now and don't feel as awkward when I have to meet others! I still have problem with speaking on the telephone! But Hay! Improvements are what we want! I do not have my Library Hotspot as often so I can't communicate as much! Thanks again!

Good to hear, Edd.  And, I'm not so sure that a number of us don't have issues talking on the phone.

Keep trying to stay in touch.

Terry
