BangZoom Posted August 16, 2015 Author Share Posted August 16, 2015 This is Mrs. Zoom again. BZ is back home after a week in the hospital after having a stroke and discovering that his heart was beating too slowly. He's still missing the vision on the right side of his world and he has cognitive impairment, but nothing is paralyzed and his speech is great, though he's confused and often mixes up his nouns. He'll be starting outpatient speech and OT rehab on Monday at Mount Vernon Hospital where they have a unique program just for adults with strokes and brain injuries. Our 12-year-old daughter has been amazing; cheerfully pitching in to help Dad. We're so lucky that he survived the stroke and heart problem without more significant disabilities and he should be mostly back his old self in 6-12 months with lots of rehab, love and patience. Thank you all so much for all your wonderful posts wishing him well! I read them to him in the hospital and now he's asking to see the new posts every day.

We're rooting for you and looking forward to sharing some super posts on your return. Bestiest, Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrooge Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 Got an issue of Radio Stars from February 1936 in the mail yesterday. It contains an ad for Popular Comics. GCD lists the first issue of Popular Comics as also February 1936 so it seems that the ad was geared to advertise the launch of the magazine across the Dell line. Hope all's improving for BZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BangZoom Posted September 12, 2015 Author Share Posted September 12, 2015 Hi Everyone, BZ's wife here. BZ is improving in little ways every day, though it's not always easy for him to recognize it. He really likes his therapists, who he sees at rehab twice a week. His reading has improved a lot, especially thanks to reading books with our daughter. His recovery will be a loooong, slow, difficult journey but, hopefully, he'll be back to posting here himself one of these days. Thanks so much for your continued good wishes!
