Pray for my family and myself.
 
Good evening from the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota. I am an intermittant voyer of net 54 and you may know me for My Elmer Miller cards I have been collecting. A month ago I suffered a spinal cord stroke in Tucson, Arizona. I an now in my fourth hospital and am in rehab at the Mayo Clinic. I have started to walk in parallell bars and a walker but am slow to go. Seem to be improving slowly but have a long road before me. Please pray for my recovery and for my family. Regards

I will keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers.

Thoughts and prayers out to you and your family Ken. We've done a few deals over the years for those E121's and you're a stand up guy.

Here's to a speedy recovery.

Best,

Sending out good thoughts and best wishes for a speedy, complete recovery, Ken.

kmac32 08-15-2010 07:10 PM

scarry part is I will be 50 this month and was healthy. Thought it was a heart attack at first and was misdiagnosed at a local hospital as Gillian Barre syndrome. I am numb from the top of my chest on down, weak in the hands, and left leg is also weak. Making some recovery but slow to go. Life can deal you some pretty rough cards at times. Every day should be counted as a blessing and never take your mobility for granted. I love this forum and am trying to stay positive. My wife knows to contact Leon if we have a worst case senario. Never take anything for granted.

Sorry to hear of your situation. Of course I can and will pray for your speediest of recoveries. You are in extremely good hands there in Rochester--sorry your experience with Minnesota has to be under these circumstances. I am confident that you will recover fully. As for being 50 years old, so what? I'm 51, you're only a little more than half way through your life. I live in Phoenix and was born in Minnesota--so we have some things in common. Won't and can't preach to you and I don't even know you, but I am pulling for you and so are many people, so get to work and make us all look good, especially yourself.

Ken,

Keep the faith. I had Guillain Barre Syndrome, with near total paralysis, and made full recovery, I think that most people do. It's scary but you should be fine.

Ken
