Urbanist and award-winning blogger Steve Patterson (www.UrbanReviewSTL.com) suffered a stroke a few weeks ago. Though it didn't seem that way at the time, he was lucky. First, he lived. Second, his brain (and wit) are intact. And lastly, the effects to his left side are mostly repairable with months of physical therapy.

In this video, Steve lets his friends and fans know that he is healing well and looking forward to riding around St. Louis soon on his trademark scooter.
