Speedling in hospital.....

[Bruce]

one of my questions has been can i still go to bimini?

I hope that you will be 100% recovered by then but if not let us know what your Doc is restricting you from and we will figure it out.

Docs are all saying i am doing very good.one of my questions has been can i still go to bimini? Lol!
All sounds good for it but i will be on a couple medications. A stress free week is what the doctor ordered!

If you need a relief driver(s), I'm sure we can figure this out.

So happy to hear you are doing so well so fast! Just do what they say.

Last thing i want is something to happen during crossing so i will be sure. Probably let my wife drive a bit more this year as training too.

Great news!!!!! My Dad had a right brain stroke 6-8 weeks ago and rehab was key. Also was interesting to read up on the different impacts between left and right brain strokes....helped us understand what we was going through better.

Any vision issues to the left?

 

[Speedling]

Peripheral vision is lacking slightly both sides

 

[Speedling]

@Speedling Glad to hear you're doing so well that they will be putting you into acute physical therapy. That's the medical term for torture. But you can do it!!

Enjoy those cookies today and when those sadistic PTs come and get you, just chant "Bim-in-i" and you'll be drinking coconut run before you know it

Rum aka blood thinners, lol

 

[Bruce]

Peripheral vision is lacking slightly both sides

Hopefully that will improve.

I belong to a few sailing groups where when someone asks about medicine in the ship stores the answer is always rum.

 

[Speedling]

Hopefully that will improve.

I probably fail their tests more because i keep turning my head to look

 

[tdonoughue]

Just another note to let you know we are here with you. Take it easy. Praying for you. You will be on the water in no time. Just a bump in the road. Er. I guess a bit of chop on the lake? Well, you get the idea. Breathe deeply and have a good night.

I an glad that you are communicating so well. From my perspective that is a great sign of how your body handled the stroke and is healing from it.

@Speedling My wife Kate sends her best wishes for you guys tonight. She was very touched and commented on the pictures @buckbuck posted, beautiful family!

This is Mrs. Speedling's latest update from Facebook

"An update.... Lee is still in the ICU, and will be there for sure till the end of the week. Next step is to start physical therapy. They are working on getting starting with that in the next day or so.
The doctors have done lots of tests for the last couple of days, but as of right now, they have not found any reason for his stroke or where the blood clot had came from.

Lee still has weakness in his left arm and leg. (Physical Therapy should help improve his mobility) He is also tired and isn't eating much. (His dinner tonight didn't look very appetizing.) He is also getting headaches and is nauseous.
His peripheral vision hasn't improved either. But should come back with time.
Thank you all for your prays, love and support right now. It is much appreciated!

As many have said. It's really good to hear that you're doing better and keeping your spirits up. Also, I just wanted to let you know that even though I'm not right around the corner from you all. Please don't hesitate to get ahold of me if there is anything I can do to lend a hand. You're not that far away, and it would be my pleasure to help you out.

 

[Speedling]

Update: breakfast sausage here is nasty, lol gives me bad gas too. Lookibg forward to a bowl of cereal ha ha
My pastor and elder have visited and i joked with them that they will go back and report that i am still a smart ass, lol
