Hello All – Writing on Day 11 after a severe hemorrhagic stroke, now in the Spalding Rehabilitation Hospital in Denver – a city blessed with more than its share of world-class medical specialization, including Spalding. 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.
It hit me as I was about to leave for a weekend at my operating QTH. 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. Sorry, Eric and Wayne; my K4 order will have to wait. Yes this is OT, but I have always thought of the group on this reflector as friends even if most of them I haven’t personally met yet. And this is the kind of news one shares with friends; not a CQ for well wishes on-list. In any case, it will explain an uncharacteristic silence -- after this note. (Typing by searching for one letter at a time is awkward and slow.) KN1CBR is not QRT. Merely TU, AR K. CUAGN & 73, Ted, KN1CBR ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
