Jim Paslowski is a "man's man."

A lifelong carpenter, you could describe something to Jim, and he could build it for you. He was an accomplished wood worker and an imposing figure to behold at over 6' tall.

As a very hands on type of guy, that was to change.

His journey started with a fall at his house. This "take care of everything" guy had to utter words that were not part of his vocabulary. The biggest was the word, help!

We are happy to have Jim sharing his story today. It was nice getting to know him as I'm sure you will agree as you hear the story, his story. To comment or send a message to Jim or any of our guests Comment in the form at the end of the episode.

On top of that, he began teaching open water safety, all the while acting as a tech executive for IBM and another tech company. Ever moving upward it was a time of more interviews when he noticed things were a "bit off'" Listen as he tells his story ...
