Hi all,
I received another email from Bob's friend. I'll copy and paste for all who want to read:
"Beth,
I just spoke to Bob on the phone. His re-hab is ongoing, and he says he might be there "a week or two." It's tough for him with only limited to no use of one arm and one leg, but he's pulling through. I'm happy to say that his voice soundd stronger than the last time I talked to him. He
has been moved to Room 381 of MGH in case anyone wishes to call him. I've passed along the word that many are pulling for him".
They still don't know what caused the stroke.

He doesn't have family near so I know he would love to get some cards! The address is in the post, but his room number has changed to 381.

Here's a copy/paste of the email I got from Bob.
Hi Beth, I'm emailing you from the hospital rehab computer. I'm not doing too bad now. I'm learning how to walk again, and trying to get the motor functions of my left arm and hand back. I saw one my GI doc's associates last saturday and he told me to significantly take down my fiber intake
and just use Miralax. He said because I have a lot of 'perineal descent', the fiber wouldn't really do me any good. He didn't explain why in detail, but it seems to be working! My rehab doc thinks my stroke was definitely
a result of the ibs because of my dancing routine to generate the BM's and straining which was sending my blood pressure sky high. I'm lucky I didn't blow the top of my head off. So much for ibs not being life threatening, I just *proved* otherwise! Tell everybody thanks for their
prayers and kind comments! heather's site won't let me login to do so for I know not why? Tell them I love them all and hope to be back posting soon enough. Hope you are doing better! -Bob
Sounds like Bob is still in his humerous nature! Can't wait until he's back with his IBS family!
