A stroke isn't pretty

FotF: A tip of my cap to you. You are a friend we all should be so fortunate to have. Hang in there, buddy.

Sirs, Madames,

Thanks for your kind words of support.

Over the last couple of days my friend has started to move his right arm a bit--can raise it awkwardly over his head from the side and can more or less reach across his body to touch his other shoulder. Words are still a bit of a struggle but I think he's a bit better than he was on Friday. A bit better in mood. He's taking his meds (our GP told me Saturday night that he suspected my friend hadn't taken his diabetes meds for almost two years) and he sez he's down to three smokes in two days (for him, Profile in Courage stuff). He has tried not to tell his parents everything and he wants me to keep it quiet with his usual crowd--a shame deal which I don't quite get. We took his dog out for walks, just trying to get him over cabin fever.

That's it for an update. Thanks again.

YHS, etc
