It was this very moment two years ago my wife woke up with a stroke.
So much has happened, it's been a long slow recovery.
She couldn't talk very well, no leg or arm movement.
Now she talks better, swallows better, can walk a little with a walker, or my help with a quad cane.
She can't do much with her arm and hand, trying to get them to work better.
I don't think she will ever drive or work again.
She still can't dress herself or prepare a meal.
She might have recovered better if they hadn't had her on statins, we found out a year after the stroke statins prevent the brain from recovering.
The first year is when you will recover the most.
Statins could also help you get Alzheimer's, it's a very poor drug

It's hard to believe it's been 2 year.
I remember following along with your very successful coyote trapping season.
I've recently been researching different therapy for friends and family and I am finding that statans may not be
The best option.
She is blessed to have you.

I’m glad she’s getting better, too bad about taking the wrong drugs though, sometimes I wonder about those things, how’s the grandson doing?

Hey Bob thanks!
He went back to school last fall, and still wears compression pants to reduce scaring.
They want my wife to take a prostatin , we got some strong omega 3 capsules from the chamber Dr, we will see if they lower the one cholesterol that was high

I asked for Anointing oil from one Preacher I knew wasn't fake.

It's got to be her faith - No one elses...


Prayers from here.

I think statins are not worth the side effects, Dr Meyer said to take the omega 3 capsules he sells instead of a statin

G.S. Prayers for both of you. On stroke recovery there are many things that will slow it down or stop it. Faith has helped many.

That's good news about your grandson, did you ever try the silver water? I know you really like the high oxygen chamber and it's good that those things can help as much as they do.

Some people say that adversity makes you strong While that may be true .I feel that adversity has the potential to wear me down It is also true that we all have to deal with hard times Based on your chain of events as your wife continues to recover you both have had a long journey Bless both of you and keep trying to do what you can Some time ago I read a little saying in the Readers Digest It was We all must stop and give our selves a little credit for the hard ships we have endured And remember we are not defeated unless we give up .

We tried it , I read it doesn't work, so I don't know
Ivermectin is the best thing if you get a virus.
Thanks Bob!

My son's cholesterol was really high and he has arteries that are 50% blocked. Dr. put him on an all beef diet. Literally eats nothing but red meat, and his cholesterol is dropping like crazy.
