Had A Stroke (at 52) April 2014
Hi Guys, Been away a long time. Let me just get this out of the way.
I had a Stroke. (I'm NOT selling anything DON'T ASK!) Yes I still have Morticia. (2008 2LT HHR Panel) I did change the Boyd Coddington Wheels out for Chrome American Racing Torq Thrust 17X7.5 and New tires right before Winter started. Drove Morticia Once during the Winter. Had to pick up my youngest Daughter from School.
I got the Chrome American Racing Torq Thrust Wheels, since having the stroke, I KNEW I could NOT keep up hand Polishing them once a week.
I still have everything and still hope to install the highly polished Supercharger.
I just had another MRI and MRA on my Brain, HOPEING the Dr. says the blood clot they saw last year has gone away. It was inoperable a year ago so all I can do is HOPE. Otherwise a ticking time bomb.
If you recall, I was on Workmans Comp and has 2 surgeries on me Left Arm. That Took away my Union Tile Installer career.
The Stroke, took out my Right Side. Lower Back.
I was in 2 different Hospitals Last Year for over a Month. My Kids and Wife were told to say goodbye to me, I was not expected to live through the first night.
I rehabbed at 2nd Hospital 3 Hours per day M-F to get myself back home, I did not miss one session and got myself HOME by the day they said I could get done.
IF YOU HAVE HIGH BP, TAKE YOUR MEDS AND AVOID A STROKE THEY SUCK!!!
Mike, Thanks, Had to get 2 new Laptops, from Amazon , received messed up ones and now working with a 3rd. Dell 17.3 Windows 8.1.
Smileys aren't working but at least I can post now, And Thanks for the Premium Membership it is much Appreciated.
Sorry I could not reply in email Tom, I had to Return a Laptop.
I still LOVE my Black Panel HHR. 30,500 miles on her now.

I'll be here for you, man! Recovery is a slow road, but if you enjoy a nice afternoon cruise then it ain't so slow but more a reason to enjoy life at a bit slower pace so you can smell those roses!!!!

A&P, it's really great to have you back among us, you've been missed here my friend.
Sorry that you had so many computing issues, and we're suffering from some Micro-Glitches here of late, including some problems with "Smileys" and uploading photos.
They'll but put right shortly, I've worked up a glitch log from the weekend's issues, and our Tech Folks in California will be getting that soon.
Take care of yourself and remember, we are family here, so if you need anything at all...and I mean anything, just shout out OK.
back Buddy!
