I am sorry for your loss. May God grant you and yours the comfort you desire in this difficult time.

Sunday the 24th, I had a stroke becoming paralyzed totally on my right side and unable to speak. Medics were called and I was transported to the nearest hospital. An hour after arriving my feelings came back to my body and I could talk again. After around 30 minutes I became paralyzed again and could not talk. I was immediately transferred to a larger hospital in a big city and during the trip, I again started to talk and move my arms and legs. I remained overnight and on Monday they did MRI’s, various scans, etc. The doctor determined I had had an actual stroke and not a mini stroke.

I came home Monday with no major damage. Only a small unbalance when moving quickly and seemingly no other complications.

I’m considered a miracle by the doctors. I’m 66 and in good health except a 50 year smoker (not anymore) and a Class A personality always on the go. Just thought I let you know it is possible to have a full-fledged stroke and be normal again.
