I am so sorry this has happened to you. I am certain though that you will kick ass with your recovery and you already are since your writing is as great as always despite the struggles you are experiencing. Your brain is one hell of a machine and no stroke or anything will slow it down from expressing the thought you want to express. Everything else will follow.
I expect you to get out of there soon and be ok forever! I am serious! Should I get on a plane and go kick your ass? You know I say this out of love, but no matter how things go, what adjustments you might be faced with, to me you are all the same, Taraz, the brilliant word machine, the best dad, my friend, explorer of everything human! I know you will be better soon. It will happen. It has to.
Hugs
