Dear TeamToddTBI,

My recent virtual flights: ”https://drive.google.com/file/d/1gJmDBSmoeI87_6Ny9kYyQhPoT6D51wBG/view?usp=sharing” I hope others find an enjoyable outlet for their physical energy. I truly enjoy the challenges of coordinating control inputs while my heart beats over 150 beats per minute. To me exercise means completing a boring activity that physically strains you. What I do on my bike is not boring to me.

I continue my effort to learn SDL and revive an application that I once had for playing blackjack. At this point, I put an image of the blackjack table top and the ace of spades on the screen. This week I hope to draw a whole single deck of cards on the screen.

My favorite sister was home this week; but departed today. Saturday, she made pancakes for me. I am well taken care. After the prime rib dinner last night with all the trimmings, I became very concerned with any cottage cheese container “traveling incognito” with Libby as she departed. I was not given permission to inspect her personal cooler but it seemed heavier than when she arrived a week ago.

The Hokies defeated the team from the University of Virginia in a football game yesterday. Go Hokies!

My good behavior today, in church yielded a breakfast casserole.

Hello TEAMTODD! Happy Thanksgiving! It has been a good week for the Westley 4. We do enjoy Libby’s company when she is home. It is always good food and good times. Libby plays head games [Todd says: it’s cruel to play head games with someone with a brain injury!] with Todd, teasing him, BUT the Toddster enjoys every minute of it. Todd always has some quick comebacks.

Libby was helpful in getting a prescription plan for Todd. She spent some time doing the research and making the calls. We are grateful. Ted and I receive our medical care insurance through TriCare For Life and the Medicare Supplement plans are very foreign to us. Libby knew all the questions to ask.

Tomorrow, Todd is hoping to make an appointment to see the neuro ophthalmologist Todd thinks his prescription has changed. It will be interesting… The last time, Todd saw her, his eyesight had improved… Go figure…

Thanks for staying with us, TEAMTODD. Your continued interest encourages Todd on his journey.

St. Luigi, Pray for ALL of us.
