Family and Friends... 
Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas, and thank you all for the birthday wishes as well; I am so thankful for all of you! 

I know I don't share much, but I've received a lot of texts and phone calls about my health issues lately and figured I should address them. 

The details:  
I have a malfunctioning brain due to a neurological disorder. Haha. I say this lightly and want to keep it light, though this has been one of the most difficult months of my life. (Still smiling and positive 🙂

I have struggled with symptoms of Traumatic Brain Injury and Post Traumatic Stress for years, but have kept it a secret while continuing to function normally. Recently, a perfect storm of illness and strange events happened while traveling; leading to memory loss, motor skills deficits, speech impairment, seizures, and 25lbs lost to muscle atrophy. 

Long story short-- I'm alive, I'm recovering, I have great neurologists and medical team, I have amazing family and friends taking wonderful care of me in San Diego and Seattle areas ... and there is nothing to worry about. 🙂. 

I apologize to the large group of people that have been in the dark, but I promise it's not from lack of love. The last thing I've wanted to do is burden anyone else with my problems while I'm trying to figure out the answers myself. Haha. I am confident that I am getting better, and look forward to communicating with everyone as recovery progresses. 🙂. 

There have been a handful of people helping me through this process - you know who you are, literally life savers! Thank you all for your help, love, and understanding. Love you all!  🙂. 

Glen.
