Education and insight into the life of a young stroke survivor
The Photo Gallery is being hosted by the Facebook page called “Sabin’s Stroke of Genius”
That group page is primary only for photos you have of Sabin at any time. (keep the integrity up cause of course there may be some “R” shots!) Photos from all the fundraising events can be uploaded there too. All other information regarding Sabin’s progress will be posted on this site.
Here is the link to the page:
Welcome! On June 24th 2009, I suffered a Stroke that was the Genius behind this spawning! Here, people can stay in tune with my recovery, make comments to me and each other, share ideas, get involved with fundraiser events, upload and view pictures, make a donation, or just give positive support. This has been such a tragic experience, but the response of friends has been overwhelming. It makes me feel so special that so many people care about the state of my well being. I have a long road to climb and make headway each and every day. Your notes, prayers, and good wishes via email, text, and facebook really gives me strong support in such a positive inspiration. I am lucky to be surrounded by so many caring individuals. Thank You ALL!
(A very special BIG Thanks to Katie McGovern for getting this started!!! Thx Katie:)

Brother,
Sorry to hear about your stroke. Hope all goes well. Life is a very precious thing that we all have a tendency to take advantage of, not that you had any idea that this was going to happen. We’re way too young for bad things to happen to us. What the F#$@???? What happened to you brings me to tears. I’m glad you’re going to be okay.
We were great friends as children. I remember hanging at your house in Piasa Hills. I remember the Graduation party that got busted too. Thank god most everybody got away unscathed. Thats a great pic of you on the ski lift. I have some great ones of a trip Mike, Jerry, and I went on to CO. We hit Breck, Keystone, Copper, and Vale. Totally awesome. If there’s anything you need let me know. Love you man

Sabin, I am very sorry to hear the news of your current stroke. Things like this shouldn’t happen to such young and vibrant individuals, if only we would be able to prevent things like this from happening. I have thought about the college days alot over the past couple of years and your name is always brought up in my conversations, boy those days were great. If only we were 21 again, and could relive that couple of years would be great. I know your a very strong individual and you will get through this. Remember, as brothers and friends we are all always there for you, if there is anything we or I can do, please don’t hesitate to ask. Here is my current cell phone number if you dont have, 618-978-4615. You are in all of our prayers, fight through this, be strong, I look forward to seeing all the wonderfull progress that will take place.

Sabin!!
I think of you often…. I had no idea that you had suffered a stroke. I was just in contact w/ Vanessa today, and she told me. I am glad you have this site we can come to. I promise to keep you in my thoughts and prayers. I wish I could come home for the benefit in Sept. but I am not sure if I can get off work. Please get in touch with me, if you have the time and energy. I know you will grow stronger as the days pass. You are truly an optimist, and one of the most genuinely kind people I have ever known.
Please let me know if I can do anything to help you. Really.
