I had a stroke. Apparently, making it to today means that I may be around (and [arguably] functional) for a few more years!
You never know when your entire world is going to turn upside down.
Celebrate today!

Thanks guys! I texted my daughter, who was home with me when it happened, that it'd been a year today, and she started consoling me. I said "no, this is wonderful news!"

Amen, Minde. Sometimes it takes a post like yours to put life (and our daily small problems) into perspective.

Wishing you many more years of health and happiness!

P.S. are you sure the off topic forum is good for your "condition"? LOL
