Default Almost Back after Brain Surgery

I apologize in advance if this is the wrong forum to post this, but the Dyna forum is where I spend most of my time.

A couple of months ago I posted a thread telling you guys I would be off the horse for a while after having a cerebral hemorrhage and stroke. Well, I go back to work next week and I find out when I can start riding again this week. I have documented my story (with images) for all to see if you are interested. I am hoping it can help save someone in the future. I warn you it’s not an easy read so enter at your own risk.

Thank you guys for keeping me busy reading your posts. It’s nice to be coming back!

Very nice to hear you're doing well (too bad its good enough to start working again ). And very cool you're about to start riding again soon, hopefully.

If I lived in Cali, I'd like to drop by and go on the first ride with ya.

Riding is great...but living healthy is better.

Man, that is some scary stuff! So glad to hear you're on the mend and will be back on the bike again soon. All the best to you and yours. You're one lucky guy with your recovery, family and carers.
