[Elecraft] OT - A Personal Note

[Grant Youngman]

Really sorry to hear that.  Any of us (especially those of us getting up there in age) could have troubles hit at any moment.  I’m at the point where I’m just glad to wake up every morning … so far.  But I no longer appreciate the things my doctor is telling me, especially when he’s using me as a case study for some random intern  :-)

Hemmorhage was in the medulla in the brain stem, a place where – by way of crude analogy – much of the final digital to analog neural translation occurs for almost everything left of midline.

Two days in a general hospital ER; three in a neural-intensive care unit at the next hospital, where my friend and yours Fred Cady KE7X passed away just a couple of weeks ago; then a transfer here where I am trying to learn how to stand up and walk again.  Fine motor control in left hand is gone – so probably not able at present to send with right fist and turn the Big Knob with the left.
