Dirt Modeler Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 I should have written my note in this forum, my apologies. Hello, it's been a while since i posted as Dirt Modeler. I went through endocarditis early in 2019 and I thought it would kill me. Before i went "out", the doctor said that the odds of me making it were only 50%. I have a stainless steel bottom valve on my heart, and they had to put 3 plugs into my head, as endocarditis makes the heart swell up, and it messed with the veins in my head. I am out of Tennessee now, and back in Oregon. I'm in Eugene, and we will leave it at that. All of my memories are just a bit odd. Again, it's hard to explain, but the plugs in my head? They are on veins, but the veins are dead, as are the areas around them. So, I have to wait until my brain remaps itself (if that will happen), or I learn how to be the new me. I have been slowly getting back into Dirt Modeler, I feel a lot better today, everyday it's a new world for me! But I'm making it day by day! check out my store if you haven't, i'm back up and running at full speed these days. Someone purchased www.dirtmodeler.com when I was in the hospital, so I got www.dirtmodeler.store Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
