There wasnt much in the way of humping for The Iron Gimp on this Hump Day. Kept things very low-key but no Patnap materialized, which is ok. Doc was confident that I could be completely off of meds as early as May. Well see, and yes, Im hopeful as well. Does this mean I can slack off of my strict lifestyle? No way! The past 5.5 years since my last stroke have been merely the first leg of my journey in recovery. There is still much, much work to be done and a lifetime of recovery still to accomplish. Yes, it sounds like an ominous library of tasks but the trick is to focus on the horizon, stay on the path and dwell not on the immensity of the work to improve, thus quelling any possibility of becoming overwhelmed by it. Neuroplasticity works its magic on its own schedule provided the work is done, so patience is one of our closest allies in recovery. The feeling of elation when a function suddenly improves or starts working again is indescribable. So I continue. :D
