Today I had Physical therapy. We talked about my neurology appointment. He feels I still do have some deficits, but that I have improved quite a bit in a short amount of time. Next week I'll have 2 appointments, then start going just once a week. He told me that if this had happened to a 70 year old it would have been a surprise but not as shocking as it is in someone my age and it'd be strange to not have any issues with anxiety & depression after it.
We then went to Arby's for lunch. It was my 1st time eating out of the house. It was nice to spend the time talking with Johann. That's something I've really missed this past month.
After we went to Hyvee to pick a few things up. As we were checking out the cashier asked us if we had anything exciting planned for today. I told him going to the grocery store was my exciting thing for the day. He smiled and said kindly "well I hope it was a good trip then." I then told him that I'd had a stroke a month ago, so getting out to the grocery store is a big thing for me to do. He had a shocked look on his face which I get a lot lately.
I'm still surprised at the shocked look on people's faces when I tell them about my stroke.
