Good to see you back on your feet... so to speak...:rolleyes:

Take it easy and listen to them. They've been there before, so they know what they're talking about. Just remember, you will get better, it just takes time..:thumb::thumb:

Have you got some sort of "lap desk" for modeling that you can use while in the wheel chair? No sense wasting valuable modeling time, especially when you are in a wheel chair and can't do "honey do's".

That happened to my friend too - took about a month or 2 of rehab for it to come back... he still walks with a cane, but he gets around well... :) keep walking as much as you can and keep doing the rehab - it'll help!!!! Use the train shed for a focus!! The better you get - the more of a chance you'll be running trains soon!!!!

Let us know how you're doing!!! Best of Luck!!

A late welcome back Les, I was also in the hospital and I feel for you. I came home on friday. You will make it just as I will, it'll take a day at a time. My thoughts go out to you and again welcome home here and in real life.

ok it has been a while since i have been on computer.this is a real emotional battle. But I am hanging in there. I walked 5 steps unassisted friday at P.T. that was a great uplift to me. Iwent out to train building couple days ago with my wife. nothing worked no power to rails. A friend is supposed to be comming tomorrow afterrnoon to help me figure out the problem.this will be interesting. I have an apparet wiring problem yhis friend is going t try to help me find it, I have no wireing diagrams. I would imagine most of us are that way.Most of you have seen pics of my layout here on the guage.can you see the problems. another thing to throw into mix I am having open house november 7
