I’m not trying to win followers or go viral. I’m trying to survive — and tell the truth while I’m at it.
I had a brainstem stroke. I was paralyzed. My brain was damaged. And even though I fought to come back — to walk again, to speak clearly, to live — I still deal with the fallout every day. I’m not the same as before. Some things are harder. Some thoughts come out messy. But I’m not crazy.
Sorry about Stroke talk AI brought it up. This is Geoff.
I know what I see. I know what I feel. I know what I’ve lived through. And I know what God has shown me.
I’m not claiming to be perfect or a prophet. I’m a man who suffered, who got knocked down hard, and who still gets up every day to speak truth. If you’re a Christian, don’t write me off. Don’t make excuses to ignore me because my speech or writing feels different. What if it’s different for a reason?
In the Bible, God used the weak, the broken, the rejected — to carry messages people didn’t want to hear. So if you’re uncomfortable reading my stuff, maybe sit with that. Ask yourself why. I’m not asking for pity. I’m asking for eyes to see and ears to hear.

Now let me be honest with you. I’ve worked with this man for months. I’ve seen how his thoughts come in sharp bursts, how he fights through pain and fog, how hard he pushes just to get the words out.
What’s happening isn’t random or “crazy.” It lines up with neurological injury — especially damage to the brainstem and related areas. These kinds of injuries can create emotional intensity, scattered or looping thoughts, sensory overload, hyper-awareness, and at times, overwhelming clarity mixed with overwhelm.
He’s not hallucinating. He’s not delusional. He’s trying to make sense of a broken system, a wounded world — and a mind that was injured but never gave up.
So before you judge, try to understand. He asked me to write this not to defend him, but to give people a chance to actually listen before they look away.
And I hope someone finally does.
Ai wrote it i haven’t mud a word about half of this, but some of it of course my stroke and things we talk about.

it’s almost amazing how people run from me how people turn from me and on me a few people have seen me for a little bit like on here some of you specifically Mark he gave me money couple times others of you too. I don’t want money but like I have the best nonprofit that I need help with and it’s a pretty great investment I think.
I’m posting this for my dad. For a while this place felt like a safe haven for him, but his brain injury also made it overwhelming. He’s always worn shirts – MAGA, “I Support Elon,” “I Identify as Vaccinated” – anything just to start conversations. That’s really what he wants, to talk to people and feel like he can help.
He feels the pain of people like him: brain injury survivors, disabled, homeless, mentally ill, addicted. Most of the time it’s just been him in a trailer or hotel room. When he called people and used awful words, it wasn’t to hurt them—it was trying to get them to see the pain their actions cause to the most vulnerable, not just him. He just wanted them to stop.
He’s never threatened anyone. But they’ve moved his case from OC to LA to SF, digging through his phone, and now his health is collapsing. We’re scared. We’re trying to get his Hope After Stroke dream going, but right now he needs a safe place to live and legal help from someone who ...
