Had my Emface follow up today
It’s good news. The left side of my face is much more even with the right side now, and I can feel the left side of my mouth now. Before the 4 Emface sessions, it was almost completely numb. I must say that I recommend Emface treatment for any stroke patient who still has a droopy side of their face. As you know, on August 24th of this year, it’ll be exactly 10 years since my stroke happened . The fact that I’m seeing improvements that far along due to Emface is kinda wonderful. I’ve booked another session for next month, a few days before my 60th birthday, and will be doing 2 sessions per year for maintenance purposes. It was strikingly noticeable in the before and after pictures that they took of me. I really wish that Emface was around just after I had the stroke because it might have corrected the situation entirely by now, but such is life. Of course, I have to say that your results may not be as good as mine were, but they might be better too. My before picture was taken 3 years ago, and my after picture was taken today, 3 months after the 4th session of Emface. Unfortunately, I don’t have the pictures they took,so I can’t share them here, but I’m very happy with the results nonetheless.
So if you’ve been considering getting Emface treatment yourself and have had a situation that caused one side of your face to sag,especially if it’s Bell’s Palsy, which is an issue that Emface has been proven to correct, then I say absolutely do it. It’s painless and only takes 20 minutes per session. I’m going to try to get a couple of before and after pictures for you here soon.
I’ve finally gotten better
My lungs are clear. I don’t have a fever. My throat doesn’t hurt. I have some energy again. Most importantly, I’m back to blogging again. Did I miss anything while I was sleeping away this past week? After watching the news, it doesn’t look like I missed anything important. Although it does look like the news likely missed something while they were busy falling for the Trump/Musk feud debacle. I must say that I’m getting more than tired of being disappointed in the news coverage of stories that mean less than nothing, or worse, only meant to distract. I will say that I’m happy with the Canadian coverage of Mark Carney and his plans for Canada, but I don’t understand why we still have to hear from Poilievre ,a man without a riding or power, for his opinion because it means absolutely nothing.
Anyway, I’m back.
Stop underestimating Canadians
The United States has been begging Canadian tourists to come back in some extremely pathetic ways lately, from Port Angeles deciding to celebrate Canada in their July 4th parade, to California governor, Gavin Newsom claiming in ads that California misses us. It’s not going to work. This guy lays it out beautifully in a very short video.
What’s worse than being paralyzed and brain-damaged?
Being paralyzed and brain-damaged while sick with something that attacks the lungs, throat, and makes every joint in your body scream in agony, turns up the interal temperature to over 100 degrees Fahrenheit, turns the brain to mush and requires the application of a diaper and sleep for a couple of days. Worse still, your partner has the same thing.
Don’t worry. The cats still got fed and watered. While I was subsisting on Nyquil. Which really helped, by the way.

I’m not afraid, but I still don’t like it
What fears have you overcome and how?
I’ve always been afraid of going to the hospital. Then, 10 years ago, my heart forced me into a 6-month hospital stay. You can read every detail of it here starting in late 2015. There are still moments that I wish I’d died in ICU instead of having to live with paralysis and brain aneurysms, but those moments are fleeting. Having gone through it made the fear go away. I’m not going to lie. I still don’t enjoy having to go to the hospital ,but it doesn’t fill me with dread anymore. Once you have to deal with your fear, it’s not so scary anymore, it’s still not pleasant, but it isn’t scary.
We have a lot of unused space
Can Canada triple its population within 100 years? Assuming Carney means what he says regarding building houses . As long as we’re smart about it and go slowly, it’s doable. The following video will tell you how.
