******UPDATE on POPS*******
« on: October 24, 2011, 01:49:00 PM »
Thanks guys for keeping my pops in your prayers. He has recovered physically from his stroke about 80%. He washes the dishes and cuts the grass.

Cognition is slow going though. But its cool because it is going. He does puzzles so he can keep his mind sharp. He has done 2 750 piece puzzles and 2 1000pc puzzles.

But here is the good news. Dad was accepted into this cool clinical trial up in Boston. The trial is 6 months so my parents packed up and moved to Brookline MA this weekend.

It was expensive as hell but its well worth. Though the treatment is free.. They had to pay to move to boston and live there. The hospital is in brookline and its close enough for my father to walk.

The level of care is awesome though. He will get speech therapy everyday for an hour and a half.. for free..
As well as numerous MRI's on his brain. Those in the medical field know how much those cost.

Well thats the update.. I get PMs from many of my getbig brothers and sisters and i thank yous all....

I only wish Option D was one of the assholes on this forum so we could flame the shit out of this thread


Unfortunately, Option D is actually a good guy......and he's a black-  go figure

I'm your huckleberry, just say "When".


OD, it's good to hear your dad is improving, given stroke recovery is a lifelong process.

I know Option D has been worried about this for some time. It looks like there is a good amount of light at the end of the tunnel. I hope the transition out east was smooth and all goes well with the recovery.

Nothing personal sweetie. But you couldn't handle Option D's father if he wanted you for "something".



In all seriousness though hopefully he recovers 100% ! :)

I must have missed the thread, I didn't even know your father was ill. Glad he's doing better and we'll keep him in our prayers. PM me his name so we can add him to our prayer list.

Can I give you some names so you can add them to your prayer list as well? Do you have that list automated? If not I
can give you a good script that can do that, it also has flood control so that you will not get cut off by the heaven's
admins due to spam.
Let me know.

Sorry to hear man! I hope they come out with some new technology soon to help stroke patients recover better and faster. I see a lot of them throughout the day at work. Some of them get it so bad they can barely do anything by themselves again. It's a really terrible sad thing to see. It can happen so quick to it scares the shit out of me.
