My appointment is approved and moved up. Going into the epilepsy monitoring unit tomorrow at OHSU. Something is wrong with my implant or the nodes aren’t hitting the right spot exactly. Gonna get some testing done over the next few days. Seizures have been getting progressively worse as April hit and it’s a struggle to type messages out. Just know that I’m so very grateful to each and every one of you. Going through stuff like this makes somebody appreciate those kinds of things for sure.
In any event, I hope y’all are well and hopefully there won’t be any NFL player 90° anytime soon.
I understand the ecological benefits, but there are plenty of snags in the woods that aren’t 5 feet from roads. And absolutely, all dead trees near roads and power lines are cut here, and much of this area is heavily wooded. In fact every dead tree within a certain distance of a roadway is required to be removed within a specified timeframe (don’t remember exactly what it is).
The importance of that became all too clear after the ash borers tore through a decade ago, lining the roadways with snags that inevitably dropped on cars and people. By the end of 2018 all of them that weren’t cut down had dropped naturally except in the most sheltered locations, it was ~2yrs at most.
