Hello, relatives and friends…
3 years ago, I suffered a brain aneurism , which, destroyed my life… It was due to a brain disease entailing chronic encephalitis, resulting in non-epileptic seizures, paralysis and mini stroke… it was really rough, in the beginning… I can’t hear out of my left ear. My vision is shot… I have migraines, practically 24/7…my legs are a complete mess!… I’ve lost the use of some fingers… I have partial paralysis in both hands… Sometimes, I lose control of my left arm… My speech is garbled and slurry, a lot of the time…however, I’ve gotten much better. Its been a long road…. I’ve lost everything… I have to start over…. It’s impact on my life has been devastating!
My neurologist, suggested that I take up an instrument, for rehabilitation… I had to laugh… I never stopped doing music and writing songs… I started a 100 song CD, over a year and a half, ago… (never been done before, by a single artist… It’s not a best off, either) It has grown to 265 songs… It gets very hard, sometimes… I don’t care if I have to use a paintbrush on a computer screen, like, I’m Stephen Hawkins or something… The music… The song must go on… It’s everything I am… And, I plan to finish my life that way…. So, i’ve decided to head to Europe to continue my music and start a new life… my estimated departure will be in April… I’ve managed to get some funds together, however, I don’t have much, at this time… Maybe, I’m old fashioned…Maybe, it used to be that way in the old days… But, I believe that, when you need help, you should ask your friends and family… People that know you…I have to travel, take care of myself, and set up at my destination… That’s going to require, probably, much more than I have…I’ve been told, my goal is a bit minimal…I don't know what else to do…If you can provide some help to the cause; I would be so grateful…
Those of you, who know me well, know that I am a very energetic, enthusiastic person… I must do this, now…I need to get as much as myself back as possible… Some things I’ll never get back… I know I’ll never be the same, again… I appreciate any help that you can spare to donate… A big thank you to all the generous people that have helped…
sincerely, mark
