A stroke is characterized by brain damage due to a lack of blood supply. Damage to brain tissue generally causes under-activity and loss of some type of physical or cognitive function. That is the most recognizable effect of a stroke.

However, damage to brain tissue may also cause over-activity or irregular activity of the brain, resulting in seizures. Some stroke survivors experience seizures after a stroke.

Seizures are usually frightening and confusing events that manifest with uncontrollable and unexpected movements, often accompanied by changes in alertness. A stroke survivor may develop seizures shortly after a stroke or months later. The medications used to control seizures are different from the medications used to prevent strokes.

Is that you diagnosis doctor? If so, I think I’m right about her not making it to the general.

What about the somewhat strange behavior of Bill?

Or it could be a nasty "stomach bug" or flu again, like in 2012.

While aging may be a factor, I believe she suffered from all that jet lagging around the world.....I know, as I did it for 20 years...hitting the bottle at 0300 hrs body time, not so good for the health....

I think she’s got throat cancer from years of smoking and drinking like a fish. She’s 69 and looks 80. Coughs constantly and clears her throat. Abedin said she’s confused when she wakes up and she should know because she sleeps with her.
