Sorry to hear that Scott, get well soon man!
Oh no! I hope you have a speedy recovery dude!
That really sucks, hope you can recover after the move
I'm so sorry, man. I hope you can find the help you need to recover soon!
Thanks Adam!
Sorry to hear this legend, stay safe and focus on you for a while. Look Forward to seeing your content when you are feeling better. Take care.
I had a 100 lb pipe fall on my head back in '81 while on a sub in drydock. I was not diagnosed with TBI until just a couple of years ago. You are lucky that you will be getting proper treatment and rehab and therapy to better handle the symptoms from TBI. In the 35 years after the injury I went through 23 jobs with over 3 and a half years of that unemployed. Mostly due to subtle memory and emotional issues.
Holy shit man. I wish you better days.
Sorry to hear that, but hope you get better quickly. I look forward to when you’re back making awesome things.
Hey ZOLLOTECH!
Hang in there! I've had a couple of concussions myself, and while they were both years ago, I'm still feeling the effects. It's a marathon, not a sprint -- don't rush things. We'll be patient ;-)
Hi. Never knew that. Its a hard way to get better. US healthcare should be better :(
@@organiccold US healthcare is the best in the world.
@@ps5hasnogames55 no its not lmao

How do you know if you have a concussion?
Wishing you a good recovery, take care and stay awesome 😎

Sucks to hear that, hope your recovery picks up again - we'll be waiting! Until then - take care:)
Stay strong, take all the time you need! 🙏
Thank you for all you did already on your TH-cam channel. It's sad to hear about these headaches. Wish you all the strength you need to get well. Take care!
Wishing you all the best Scott, just seen all the support you've received, you got this man! ❤️

sorry to hear that, hopefully you get healthier and better
I have always appreciated your content, Scotty. I sincerely hope you are feeling better. Please take care of yourself and know many people want to see you get better.
Scotty! It's great to hear from you, ever since I left SF (and Noisebridge) back in 2017 I've been keeping tabs on your channel. It's been great to see you take off doing something that you really have loved to do. I'm sorry to hear about the injury, no doubt a slow recovery that keeps you from doing the things you're so passionate about must be incredibly frustrating, but I have hope you'll be able to find treatment and get yourself on the path to feeling yourself. Thanks for all of the content over the years, and good luck in Colorado!
Very fitting that you share your message about a brain injury and I'm laying in a hospital bed waiting on brain surgery tomorrow. I hope you feel better soon!
good luck chief
Best of luck
Good luck bud! You will recover quickly.
Best of luck on the surgery - hope you heal quickly!
Good luck!
Wish you well and safe recovery!
And to you too Emkura, wishing a fast recovery to both of you! Cuvajte gu.. 🤭😄

You are one of the people who inspired me to start a TH-cam channel. So sad to see you having health issues, I hope you recover and we see you some time in the future. Stay safe and well champion!
I hope you recover well man, you're channel taught me so much, English, Tech, Electronics, thank you so much!!!
Really sorry to hear that. Hope you make a swift recovery. Love all the contents you made.
That's awful. I really hope you have a decent recovery. Thoughts and prayers your way!
I'm sorry to hear that. We really miss you. I really hope you fully recover soon. 💚
Man, you're such a genius, thanks to you I decided to search more about electronics and technology. Don't worry you have our support, and I hope you get better
I'm terribly sorry to hear about your brain injury. I hope the Colorado doctors help you have a speedy and complete recovery.
It's depressing to have to pack up your workspace - and all those dreams!
My heart is with you and yours as you go through this transition.
Rooting for you strongly - all the way from Seattle.
Glad your alive missed you! Hope you get better!
As a sufferer of multiple concussions and heat strokes, my heart goes out to you. It was 3 years before my brain was back to normal after all of that madness. The only thing that still messes with me is some acute aphasia and a degradation in my general mathematical ability.
@@SpartanArmy117 From having to go through this myself, it can be very hard to find a doctor that knows what going on with concussions and the after effects. Its only been in the last 10 years or so that they have really put effort towards this in the medical field. You unfortunately do have to find the right doctor for something like this and if it means moving to them it is 100% worth doing so. Dealing with the fallout from multiple concusions or any brain injury physical or emotional can be a dark place.
I’ve had 4 or 5 massive concussions, I’m really suffering now because of it, I haven’t got any health care help at all in the uk, I can’t get a diagnosis.. so I can’t get help, my family is suffering and everyone who I used to know I don’t know now, I’ve gone from being clever to not so clever, it’s tough, everything changes but it’s invisible from the outside
@@SpartanArmy117 Some states legitimately have worse healthcare than others. The US is huge. States also vary in insurance cost and insurance quality. StrangeParts needs to find quality healthcare that won't bankrupt him for over a decade.
Does moving one's entire life - while suffering from a brain injury - sound like something they'd be doing unless they absolutely had to? Building a new life somewhere is hard enough without a TBI involved.
God forbid it happen, but you'd understand if your neurons were similarly scrambled. Sans that, I completely understand that it can be hard to fully empathize or put yourself in his shoes. Especially when/if you're young. But that's why it's important to err towards the affirmation/compassion side of the spectrum versus skepticism/denial.
@@andyking05 =( can you get in to see a neurologist?
@@norvillerodgersspeaks on a waiting list currently 9 months in to a possibly 2 year wait phew!
Best of luck to you brother. I'm currently going through a little something myself so i understand having to stay in the background until you get yourself sorted. It'll all play out in the end. Stay up!
Man, my heart is broken. You're an inspiration to me. Wishing you all the best!
Hop you get better soon.
Thanks Mike!
I feel you as a stroke survivor. Didn’t fully recover in 9 years but i moved abroad for my rehab. Slowly improving every day. Good luck
Damm so sorry dude, loved your qwerky videos you are an inspiration. Speedy recovery hope the next video we see is you all recovered.
I hope you get better soon. I love your videos both because of your style and how informative they're. Hopefully, you recover fast and we continue to enjoy your content.
Hey man! Take it easy. My Aunt has had two traumatic brain injuries, and has figured out how to do what she does. I’m sorry for your injury, but I know you’ll get better.
Take care. You are loved.
I was wondering where you'd gone, appreciate you letting us know, hope you get better soon.
Best of luck. Admired and appreciate your constant positivity in all your videos!
Best wishes to you, man. Absolutely go where the best care is, and I hope you have a solid recovery and soon.
take the time to take care of yourself we will be here when you're ready to share again.
A tough challenge to work through; recovery can be depressingly slow. But "hurrah for neuroplasticity" - you will certainly get much better though it takes a year. Even more challenging in a country with such a broken health and social system. On that wishing you best of luck as you get back on your feet. Looking forward to seeing you back doing great things; you have the talent!
I’m sorry to hear about your injuries hope you better soon, I just started following your channel yesterday .
Sorry to hear that. Happy New Year and I wish you all the very best for the new year ahead. Best of luck.
Man, I wish you a speedy recovery. Take care of yourself. We will be waiting here for you. It was nice to hear from you again and we just have to continue waiting.
Godspeed.
As someone who worked in brain injury rehab, I know it's rough. You're strong and you'll get through this with time and effort
How do you even get better with something like this? Are there certain exercises you can do?
@@togwilson lots and lots of therapy usually. It all depends on the nature of the injury, how long it took to get treatment and the relative severity. It's very case-by-case.
@Furtuim Have you heard anything about red light therapy? I've heard its been used in some concussion recovery cases. As an aside I've had multiple concussions in my life (Two at a young age, bouncing my head off concrete twice, a very minor one riding an electric skateboard). The recent one from skateboarding I rigged up some red lights, and it helped immensely with alleviating brain fog.
I’ve enjoyed your content for quite a while and I’m sorry you’re going through such a hard time. Take the time you need to heal yourself properly and I hope you get well soon. Good luck with your move to Colorado; let us hope you find quality healthcare to address your injury. I wish you and your loved ones the best in the coming holidays. Take care of yourself, and I hope to see you back in fighting shape soon.
Hey Man,
sorry to hear that. KEEP STRONG everything will turn out allright
We will be here waiting for you and your videos!
Don't forget KEEP STRONG!!!
This is saddening to hear that you're dealing with these health issues, brain injuries are no joke and you're absolutely making the right decision, here's to a healthy recovery and the future
Having had a few concussions in my life, please keep taking it as slow as you need. Sending prayers.
🙏🙏 get well soon, I loved your factory vids!
Sending good vibes your way. I hadn't seen you in a while and suddenly one of your videos was recommended, so I came to check what was new and saw this. Hope everything works out.
It's been said many times before, but after this I think it really needs saying again. Scotty, for the love of God, set up a Patreon account for your channel already, so we can help support you through times like this! Us contributing money to you there is about more than just paying for videos, it's also so you can afford things like proper Health Insurance, and taking time off when you need to without going broke. You're one of the few >1M subscriber channels without some sort of crowdfunding support, and there is no shame in it! Please, let us help you, man!
I second that. You said it so we'll, I would DEFINITELY support 'Scott' in his career. Man, this guy is a LEGEND! One of the few creators out there with genuinely thought out content, with imagination and ingenuity.
I wish i was a doctor to help you with your recovery. But I'm not.. I wish I could support you financially cause this will be an uphill. But you don't even have a Patreon account. How can i help? How can your followers help? There has to be more we can do than wait for you to come back.
my credit card is itching already!!!
+1
really, ad money is unpredictable and unreliable
crowdfunding is the way to go
I've been living with post concussion syndrome for two years now. It gets better, but I learned how important it to take care early in your recovery. Things like sitting down to fast, standing up too fast, turning too fast or making sudden accelerations must be reduced during recovery to avoid aggravating symptoms or causing secondary injuries like I suffered. Best of luck to you on your recovery.
Try CBD, Flax and Fish oil cocktail everyday. It can reverse the course of the trauma.
I been there as well. It really sucks. Be strong. I wish you well and a good and fast recovery.
Thats awful! Feel better man 🙏 love your channel, take absolutely all the time you need to make a full recovery.
I wish you the most optimal recovery and team of doctors on your side. Everything will work out just fine, and I’m so sorry you’ve had to go through this pain lately. There is no doubt in my mind that your new shop and place in Colorado will be the best one yet! Much love, speedy recovery !!
Oh man!… You are a great inspiration. I was in Shen Zhen the last time exactly when you where there before the pandemic and I couldn’t get a hold on you. Your health is more important than anything else. Have a healthy recovery and keep your spirit up!. We are going nowhere… we are still here!
Good luck man! Looking forward to your recovery!
Scott my heart goes out to you, hopeful for your healing and eventual return
I’ll be here when you’ve recovered more!
Recovery is a weird kind of work. I wish you a speedy one!
I wish you a quick recovery, man! We're here for ya and have loved seeing how you bring some really cool ideas together!
Hope things go well!
I saw the miniature video and the tittle so I was afraid to watch it. You are a beautiful human being full of life on that smile. Everything is going to be OK and then come back soon 🙌🏼 your fans from DR 🇩🇴
Sorry to hear this bro. You were really an inspiration for me. I wish you speedy recovery
Praying for you brother!! Take care of yourself!! We’ll be here when your better!!

So sorry to hear that! Praying for your recovery.
Had not been paying attention! So sorry you got injured! Have the speediest recovery possible and looking forward to your next video! Get better so very soon.. hope the move went well..
Hey Scotty, just focus on yourself and get better. We'll be here when you''ve fully recovered.
Rest, rest, rest and recover. Hope you get the best care in Colorado. We'll be here continuing to support no matter how long it takes or you may need (hopefully, a full recovery soon)
Hoping for a fast recovery, and thank you for sharing!
Much love from N.Y brother, wishing you a speedy recovery
You will get through this and back to where you want to be! Thanks for all the amazing content over the years. Looking forward to your future projects. You got this!
Glad you're here to let us know you're ok.
I've had 3 concussions, so I know how you feel. After the first one, I had to learn how to walk again. 20+yrs later and still feeling the effects of them.
Love you bud!!! Please take your time in recovery.
