Dear Friends, I believe my message to Suzi was taken totally out of context. I only meant to put her mind at ease about her boyfriend's illness. I have heard of (and seen) most people recovering from strokes so often that I just thought that his symptoms, as minor as they sounded, would be compensated for eventually. I have spent a great deal of time in general rehabilitation, where most of the people were recovering from strokes. It appeared that all of them completely recover from the CVA. I DID mean well, Suzi. Maybe I should have written more, as I am right now, instead of being so blunt. Sorry if I caused any more pain. Jacob
