    Was in Point Arena for a week. Dirt. Do you hail from this area. Went to Boontown but missed going to Ukiah.

    It's spelled 'Boonville'. ( I had a stroke recently so it is difficult to type.). To bad u didn't go through Ukiah. Sounds like you went to Mendocino. That is a nice drive.

    Yep. Went to Mendocino. Wife and I used to come up here when dating back in the late 70s. Hung out at Noyo River docks and restaurants. Went canoeing on Big (Little?) River. Grandfather did his first job in Arcata on a wooden pipeline. Father
    has fond memories of that when he was a boy. Places up there are all built up compared to when I used to go there in my college days. Did mean Boonville. Wife hated the twisty roads.

    Sorry you had a stroke. You are my age. YIKES! Two year younger brother will have a kidney removed next month. They found a nodule. Since you only need 1 kidney and since biopsies there are a pain, they just take it out.

    As good as can be expected. Typing is really difficult. Can't seem to find the right keys so it takes a lot of effort. I still walk my dog Lilly 1 mile. That is fortunate. Mornings are better than afternoon. When I starts getting frustrating I
    stop. But I am alive and should recover in time. Took 10 minutes to type this note. Fortunately I have my Son here. He does everything.

    I get frustrated. I was never great at it. Now it is pick-a-peck... Takes a lot of concentration. I never was great at so IDK.

    Taking a baby aspirin every day is good for u for some reason. I was told by Dr. it can save you from stroke. Don't know why though.
    Liptor too. They doubled my dose. Norvasc too. (Amlodipine). Blood Pressure Med. I though I was healthy.
    I dont smoke, don't drink much either. Maybe I dont drink enough :)

    I do not take any aspirin because it seems like I bleed too much as it is when I accidentally scratch my arm. I take Lipitor, Lopid (two statins), Lisinopril (although I have never measured hi blood pressure) + diabetic meds (no insulin). I am 5'
    10" 205 lbs.68 years old.
    Sorry it is difficult for you to type. Finger muscles?? or just coordination? I am not really afraid of the surgical knife. I had my eyelids raised 2 years ago. One operation for each eye. Worked on one eye, but the other eye lid still sits lower.
    I think Marin county is the nicest place to live in the entire country. I ate at a restaurant there when I was a student at UC Berkeley from 78-79.

    It reduces the clotting ability, so you bleed easier
    but have less chance of a blood clot blocking a blood vessel in
    the heart (heart attack) or the brain (one type of stroke).

    aspirin so it was not worth the risk.

    I think I will be ok. My brother had a stroke at 50, He recovered, I was told I have high blood pressure. Now taking meds.
    BP is the silent killer!
    Tears up your arteries inside!
    Keep it normal!
    No coffee, drink decaff!
    I take Vecepa which is prescription fish oil. Google it. No, have never been to Trident restaurant but have definitely been to Sausalito. Went to Spengers Fish Grotto in Berkeley back in the day. I think McCormick and Schmick has since bought
    the place. Restaurant I liked in Marin was 464 Magnolia. I believe it is no longer there. Should have gone to Che Panise (Alice Waters) in Berkeley but never did. Went to Trader Vics on Cosmo place in San Francisco as well as other cool
    restaurants. My uncle showed them all to me. He had a PhD in nuclear physics and worked for PG&E on their nuclear plants. He died very young in 1986 (at age 50 of myocarditist. Flu complications).

    Thanks for this fact. I have type 2 and do not take baby aspirin. Seems like my blood is thin enough as it is since whenever I cut or scratch myself, it seems to bleed a lot. My buddy took it and he stopped after being hospitalized with an ulcer.
    Not sure the aspirin caused it but did not help.

    As good as can be expected. Typing is really difficult. Can't seem to find the right keys so it takes a lot of effort. I still walk my dog Lilly 1 mile. That is fortunate. Mornings are better than afternoon. When I starts getting frustrating I stop.
    But I am alive and should recover in time. Took 10 minutes to type this note. Fortunately I have my Son here. He does everything.

    Strokes are unpredictable!
    No symptoms!
    Keep your BP, Cholesterol etc... normal!
    Stay away from hamburgers or red meat!
    Eat lot of fish, fattier the better, like salmon!
    Aspirin thins your blood, flows better!
    Get well!

    Yep. Went to Mendocino. Wife and I used to come up here when dating back in the late 70s. Hung out at Noyo River docks and restaurants. Went canoeing on Big (Little?) River. Grandfather did his first job in Arcata on a wooden pipeline. Father has
    fond memories of that when he was a boy. Places up there are all built up compared to when I used to go there in my college days. Did mean Boonville. Wife hated the twisty roads.

    Sorry you had a stroke. You are my age. YIKES! Two year younger brother will have a kidney removed next month. They found a nodule. Since you only need 1 kidney and since biopsies there are a pain, they just take it out.
    I spent summers in Fort Bragg as a kid. Spent lot of time Mendocino.

    My great uncle was working the same wooden pipeline. He was a 'powder monkey' blasting rock. He loved it and had great stories. He had the old plunger ( forget its name ) it set off the dynamite. My cousin and I would the turns shocking each other...
    . Everyday we would take his old truck to all the beaches hoping the grunion were running . We'd net a 5-gal bucket and take home and smoke dry them. Those were the days! He had a case of dynamite is his garage for years. Like a carpenter
    having a saw.. I wonder if he knew your Grandfather....

    Taking a baby aspirin every day is good for u for some reason. I was told by Dr. it can save you from stroke. Don't know why though.
    Liptor too. They doubled my dose. Norvasc too. (Amlodipine). Blood Pressure Med. I though I was healthy.
    I dont smoke, don't drink much either. Maybe I dont drink enough :)
    I do not take any aspirin because it seems like I bleed too much as it is when I accidentally scratch my arm. I take Lipitor, Lopid (two statins), Lisinopril (although I have never measured hi blood pressure) + diabetic meds (no insulin). I am 5'10"
    205 lbs.68 years old.
    Sorry it is difficult for you to type. Finger muscles?? or just coordination?
    I am not really afraid of the surgical knife. I had my eyelids raised 2 years ago. One operation for each eye. Worked on one eye, but the other eye lid still sits lower.
    I think Marin county is the nicest place to live in the entire country. I ate at a restaurant there when I was a student at UC Berkeley from 78-79.
    Did you ever go to the Trident restaurant in Sausalito?

    I am feeling fine. But trying to type is a struggle.
    I rely on my Son a lot. I don't like to drive other than a mile or so.
