Where is everybody/anybody ?
Just got back from a 2 week hospital/rehab stay for a stròke and the board seems silent. I know it's off season but there aren't even any arguments going on. What gives?

You might have heard there's a new sheriff in town… 😉
i feel like kirby has locked the program down completely so there is nothing to talk about unless they throw us crumbs. its just a dark empty void
Wow very serious, so glad to hear from you brother don. I hope you are on the mend!
I’m censoring everyone’s posts
The s-word was censored in your original post, so I didn't want to speculate. So sorry to hear this happened and I pray the best for your recovery.
Thanks for the kind words. It was a mild s.troke. My speech is pretty much back to normal. I should be able to yell at my tv with the best of them come football season. A little weakness on my right side. It's hard to bow my violin right now but it's slowly getting easier. The experts say playing the piano will help my fine motor movements, so I'm working on some boogie woogie style keyboard stuff, as well as practicing printing and writing. Finally, the PT is going to come 2 x a week and work with me on smoothing out my walking gait. My right leg works like I've had a few too many.
Hope something happens soon so we can resume business as usual.
Oh, if it ever happens to you, don't wait like I did to see if it passes. Go straight to the ER. Don't even pause for a brewski.
Glad to see your on the road to recovery !
Glad you are on the mend! Wishing you a speedy and complete recovery! Yelling at tv is good therapy.
Glad to hear you are out of the hospital. I wish you a full recovery.
So, in the future when you've had one too many and are stumbling around, are you going to tell everyone that you are recovering from a stro-ke?
I know I am.
Get well, be well. (and keep a brew in the glove box just in case)
Recovery is a great thing. Was very depressed by a similar situation and a friend of mine took me to a local cemetery. He said we're all going to end up here and then cussed me out for not appreciating my opportunity for recovery and told me to get out of the car and appreciate which side of the ground I was standing on. Haven't missed a pt session or a tele-health appointment since. Good luck to you sir!
I pray in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour for your full and complete recovery and healing of your mind, body, mental, spiritual and emotional health. GOD bless you and your family. Amen. Hey brother, didn't know you had a strok.e, I did notice your absence on DawgNation. Good to see your positive attitude. 😎
Following your lead, I started recording the games and watching later because some were just too close for my stress level. Hope you recorded that last game too.😊
Shout at the TV? I very much hope you are cleared to play Left Tackle! Good Luck and speedy recovery my friend ❤️
A fellow I know made a remarkable recovery walking on a basketball court while bouncing the basketball back and forth between and using both hands. It's a DIY therapy similar to playing the piano in that it activates and uses both sides of the brain and body.
I'm so glad you're having such a good recovery so far.
Got anything to argue about? I'm sure there will be takers.
Go, Dawgs!
