New To Bass Buzz

Hello, I’m new to the Bass Buzz Community, I’ve been a bass player since I was 12 years old, here recently at 60 years old I had a stroke that affected the left side of my body as well as my fretting hand. When I returned home from the hospital one of the first things I did was pick up and try to play my bass again, needless to say, It was a frustrating nightmare. But I took my time and slowed myself down and now my playing has gotten much better , I’ve actually learned new songs completely through note for note, in the beginning though, I felt like I did when I first started as a child in my bedroom. I saw some of Josh’s lessons on youtube and decided to join up here. I figure With hard dedicated work I’ll get through this, I’ve made a lot of progress already. I just wanted to say hello to you all, I’m so glad to be here!
