Geocache Description:

PLEASE DO NOT REMOVE THE HOST. JUST REMOVE THE TOP. THANKS!

After finding XRN & Weatherbug's 'Celebration' cache, I figured that was a nice idea and I would do some "celebrating" as well!

I had a rare type of stroke following a race that I ran on 9/25/10.

As a result of my STROKE, I LUCKED out and got the best outpatient therapy I could have wished for across the way from where the cache is placed - hence the cache name.

After being hospitalized for 3 weeks and then having outpatient PT at HealthSouth for 3 months so that I could learn to walk again - among other things... I was discharged last week, and I am fully back in commission and happily back out on the caching trail!! :) I had what everyone thinks is a miraculous recovery.

The brain is so absolutely amazing and fascinating!
~~Side note: A few weeks ago, we watched a PBS special "Brain Fitness: Peak Performance", and there was a segment on **GEOCACHING** and the benefits for brain health!!
Happy caching...keep that brain young and stimulated! :)
The library has a copy of this special on DVD.
