Donny, Ditto on Dr. Lisk being special.
Donny,
I’ve been thinking about your surgery everyday. I’m excited for you. I’m sure you’re getting nervous, this surgery is a BIG step. I can’t wait to see what you’re going to post about your surgery and recovery! You don’t have cameras in the OR do you??
You’re in all of our thoughts; We LOVE you!!
Hi Donny,
Your dad just told me about the surgery you will be having soon and how it will enable you to regain some of your motor skills.
Your rehabilitation is going to be a significant test of your endurance and patience but from what I hear you are the kind of man that is not afraid to step up to a challenge. You have been through a lot already and it must be gratifying to know that in a few months you will be “back on your feet”.
They say that “whatever doesn’t kill you will make you stronger” and you have had an opportunity in your life to learn about what you are made of. Most people go through life wondering what they would do if they were confronted by a traumatic experience and frankly most people are afraid.
You have already had a traumatic experience and you know that you have what it takes to deal with tough challenges. You know that the next few months are going to be hard and will require you to dig deep and keep working till you get it right. But you already have come a long way and you know that you can do it again.
You are one of the rare people that have extreme fortitude and you will continue to be an inspiration to others and an asset to your family, community and country.
We are all fortunate to have people like you amongst us.
Best of luck with your surgery and rehabilitation. Our prayers are with you.

Hi donny I recently did some digging on brain story because I think I have something going on in there. for the past three months I feel like I have a leakeage somewhere in my brain I also have a pretty intenses heahache too. My doctor did a ct scan of my brain but couldn’t seem to find what was wrong. Even though he told me that everything looks fine but i know theres something going on. I did some searching and saw your video and read that you had hypoxia. So how are you doing now? Are you walking yet? I hope everything work out well for you. You are an amazing person. keep up the good work and best of everything to you, your family
Hello, Donny
This is a impressive website. Thank for including me in it, this is very flattering. I hope to see you to improve and eventually start walking better. You have a great supportive family and from listening to you, friends as well. You are a genuinely good person and I am glad to have met you.

great tips. I enjoyed reading this
My husband suffered a 2cm bleed in thalumus (sp?). And was not supposed to live. Even if he lived, he should be unable to walk or talk. However, if you met him on the street, you would not know he had any problems. He is normal on the outside. The damage is on the inside. I’ve stayed with him even though it is very hard! His personality changed severely and has short term memory loss. It was like god took my husband out of his body and put another person in it!!! Good luck, I hope the best for you.
It seems excellent phrase to me is
Thank you for a good story, I really enjoyed your blog.
