18 Months ago I suffered a stroke down my RH side, effecting speech, unable to write a sentence, having problems concentrating reading and could not sort my laptop. After 3 months my IT began coming back and one of my first sites was UH and it recognised my log in. So you if are in the same place I was in, do not give in.
My next target is trying to operate the half brick I know as my camera with my left hand. WELCOME




Way to fight, kitcar! Congrats on the progress, keep working, and glad to have you back!

Looking forward to your first pic post!

I can relate, 18 months ago I had a stroke affecting my left side, to date I have no use of my left arm and am in a wheelchair. One thing that helped me was getting a shoulder mount made by cowboy studios, I paid $25 on amazon. I was lucky (?) in that it wasnt my right hand. Think about getting a remote shutter release that you could Velcro to the left side of the camera. Good luck and never give up on your recovery, I know I still show improvement, however slight, after 18 months. Just remember that even the tiniest victory is still a victory.

Great "stick-toitiveness." Keep up the good recovery and keep looking for the subjects that give you pleasure and sharing them with us.
