Dennis


Just want you to know I am thinking of you. I know you love my poems and so I thought I might send this one to you and I am sure that you are having some unruly thoughts at this time.

Unruly Thoughts


Sadly said
And poorly put
Jumbled thoughts

Roaring
Through
My head

Bouncing
From here
To there

No stopping
Colliding
Veering off

Bounding back
Charging
Hard

Zinging
Springing
Leaping

Hurtling
Off
Into space

Would it be too much to ask that you get dropped by, DENNIS, at the wine fest next weekend?

We would all love to see you!

Hoping that Dennis would see it now that we know he is somewhat back in the saddle.

Dennis has been getting use to being back home again. He is doing
great. So much happier being back in Baja. He is working hard on his therapy trying to gain more strength in his left side. Can walk with a walker but needs someone at his side to be sure he keeps his balance.
Lulu is sooo happy her buddy is home.
Dennis is reading most of the latest posts. I am sure it won't be long
before he starts posting again. Vicente has been such a big help with
Dennis. Dennis' neighbors have been helping him too, building up the front
door so he can get in with a wheelchair etc. Someone is always stopping by to see if he needs anything.
He is in good hands. Just has a lot of work ahead of him. He has a positive
attitude and will do fine.

Thank you Pam for taking such good care of him and they said no one else would step up! You are indeed a very good friend to have. I am glad you are mine.

walking with devices...[canes etc.] revivng and training my left side muscles....repetition, over and over......
patience is a key ingredient.
sadly, there's not much offered at Sharky's for the time being.

in spite of what many said, that my driving days may be over, i'm managing to drive and shift my nissan truck [i do that in where i live]....as well as drive my jeep, with automatic tranny all over town , Punta Banda.

one hand typing isn't all that much fun, but better than nothing.

I'm, all in all, doing well and am pleased with the progress.

more later....including a thread full of gratitude for all of the heartfelt support for which i've been overwhelmed.
it's nice to have friends when all else fails.
