Thanks for the update, Shoji-san, and glad to see that you keep your chin up!
From what I`ve read, the very few( less than one in a million)who are struck by the Fisher`s syndrome, most recover fully within 6 months. As for the main G-B diagnosis, there seems to be consensus that 85% recover from it fully. So, you`ve got medical statistics on your side, Shoji-san, and furthermore, the Japanese health care system appears to me to be very competent with high efficacy. - wish we had your system over here in Norway!
These are trying times for you and doubtless double so in light of your exciting new steel project, but I admire your spirit and "can do" attitude, so dozo gambatte, kudasai!

Thank you for caring about me.
I am still attending rehabilitation sessions.
I feel that my diplopia has been gradually improving over the past few days.
My facial paralysis has not yet improved and I cannot close my eyes.
Symptoms in the extremities are slowly improving.
In preparation for when I recover and can resume steel guitar building, I have restarted the procurement of materials and outsourcing of parts that were interrupted due to my hospitalization.
The CFRP pipes and sockets for the legs have arrived.

Thanks for the update, Toshi - it’s good news to hear of your progress.
Like many of us here, I’m very much looking forward to sitting behind one of your guitars someday!
