Just wanting to introduce myself

I am so new to raw that most would say; I’m not yet raw, but sure hoping to get there soon. In mid March I had a massive stroke and wound up being medivaced to Anchorage where I spent the next 2 1/2 months at various hospitals. I was finally released in early June, but now I am having trouble walking so I can’t fix meals like I would like. Fortunately, my husband has been fixing the meals but they are typically SAD. I had just learned about eating raw and had bought a couple books when I had the stroke. So, in spirit I am already raw.

I have spent many years studying nutrition and the raw foods diet makes much sense. That is partly why I am upset because I was eating a supposedly great and nutritious diet. Oh well, now is my chance to overcome the effects of the stroke and get on with life. Apparently they didn’t think I would live and then they decided I would never walk. Well, I AM walking with a walker even if it is very slow and painful due to hammer toes. I am going to get something to put in my shoes to help, but there aren’t any here that we have been able to find. A friend of ours is going to send some down from Anchorage.

This looks to be a friendly a place to visit. Hope to get to know you better as time goes onward.
