In the last year, my brother Mark has independently survived both a stroke and sudden cardiac arrest. He survived the former because of quick treatment with a clot buster and the latter because his son was well-trained in CPR. The only lingering impact has been a difficulty with speech and word forming, both on a trajectory to full recovery. The same cannot be said for his hair which has migrated from the top of his head to the bottom. He arrived this morning and will stay this week to help me with the tiny house build. Next week I will travel to his home in Minneapolis to help him with a deck project that he has underway. Working together is much easier than doing so alone and gives us a great chance to catch up with each other.
