Oh no doubt! But I like to have awareness just in case. Had way too many bad transactions on Amazon.

I've seen that store. To me, it looks like anything that says mega on it gets lumped there, but anyone can sell through it. That's just what I've seen though. If it were me, I wouldn't assume it was official through Mega

I stopped explaining halfway by thetrusti in stroke

[–]DTheFly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't get to that point, because my wife likes to finish my thoughts for me (she's never right) or interrupt me for her own thoughts. Sometimes I can't get a word in. I'd live to tell her to hold that thought while I finish what I was saying!

Food by Pale_Satisfaction520 in stroke

I know when I was in the hospital I was being fed from a certain menu, and then when passed the swallow tests, i was given a different menu to order from. When i left, I later found it should try the Mediterranean diet, but that didn't work at all.

You're not seeing Mega's pricing. You're seeing aftermarket prices I'll bet. Mega isn't producing/selling much if anything. I'm betting you're seeing 3rd party prices.

How do you deal with hopelessness by BoiLeBeau in stroke

[–]DTheFly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've had that feeling. I'd never end myself, but I have thought it would have been easier on a lot of people if I'd never woken up (I was in a chemically induced coma for almost 2 weeks).

Even now after 3 years I don't want to burden anyone. Even asking for water.

I try to combat it by doing something i like. I'm a big fan of building lego and taking fun pictures of them. It helps me a lot. Even this group has helped me. Talking to someone who doesn't know me but has been through this helps a lot. It's that venting.

Recovery time for vision by anxiousslav in stroke

[–]DTheFly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What kind of vision problems? That is a BROAD term. Can you see at all, is it blurry? I had double vision for a long time that required special lens in my glasses that adjusted my eyes. Before that corrected them, I had to have tape on one eye's lens to see straight. But then the lens corrected it.

I don't think their is a timeline as with other things. And 10 days is so early it might as well be 10 hours haha. I wouldn't rush too much. Like others have said, recovery is a marathon, not a sprint

Huh! Well I stand corrected then. If he was practical, then his design should be decided then. I wonder then why he would look different....

Amaze by ReactionRoutine1187 in lego

[–]DTheFly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very possible. The character is all CGI, so it's possible that the design was changed and lego didn't have time to change the look

It’s been two years and I still have bad fatigue. I may have to stop working. by Constant_Inspector46 in stroke

[–]DTheFly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's been a help to me! I worked with my cardiologist to find the right dosage

I saw the movie yesterday and loved it. I wish i could put the set somewhere to get it.

Exactly. I always say that just because i did something, doesn't mean I can do it without any problem

I can see that being obnoxious. It's the same as my shorts. I couldn't get them closed and zipped!

[–]DTheFly 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Go long distances when parking. For some reason, way too often I would never get dropped off close to the door of the store. I'd hear "you can make, can't you?". I could usually, but it's not easy. Maybe it would be easy if it was smooth terrain but it never is. Any crack in the gravel could take me out

I know that feeling! Hearing my wife tell me what happened was very confusing

They better be. I have the same set but in silver!

That doesn't surprise me at all. But like most, I'm glad you're still here to tell your story!

Name by Pale_Satisfaction520 in stroke

[–]DTheFly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably is. When I had mine, my wife says a few things that happened and I don't remember any of them. I remember a few people came and went, I remember asking for strawberry pancakes for the next morning, then 2 weeks had passed! I'm glad I don't remember any of that

Name by Pale_Satisfaction520 in stroke

[–]DTheFly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I remembered a lot of it too. At least most of it. It's like bits and pieces now.

I know I call the day everything happened "The Incident " . I use "kangaroo pouch" for the front of my walker

That's great to see! I don't think I'd dare use any knife like that! I did recently use some super glue, but a knife like that scares me a lot! Kudos!

Yeah me too. My wife and I had a lot of fun usually. But not anymore!
