    I love these success stories from people on MFP that not only talks the talk - but walks the walk.
    You give so much to the people on the forums - most of them dont know how lucky they are to have you share your knowledge with them - great job lady!!

    thanks Sara ,I think I had a series of 'normal' l strokes, as I lost movement on the entire left side of my body and to this day still have some minor physical impediments ,I have a slight limp most noticeable when I am tired and my speech is not as 'smooth' as it used to be.But better than the alternative.My hubby was told that I was "lucky" as 1/3 of people in the same condition don't make it to hospital and another 1/3 dont make it out.I had mine clipped and you have reminded I must get another scan soon to check everything's still ok.My surgeon said to have a scan at 5 and then 10 years.The last one was good.Have a good day.It's mid afternoon here , not sure of the time difference :smile:

    Your story is inspirational, and your posts on the forum are both entertaining and packed with useful information. Especially the "trolling" posts, you know, the ones where you post relevant science. Keep up the awesomeness.

    Happy MFP-anniversary and congratulations on an incredible year. This is the first time I've heard any of your story and it's an amazing one - thank you for sharing!! Through my time on here, I had already come to recognize you as one of those people who post often and actually know what they're talking about :)

    Edited because I totally forgot to mention the obvious: You look fantastic!! :drinker: If this is the example of what lifting does to a body then I need to stick with it!!!
