Guest guest Posted February 7, 2012 Report Share Posted February 7, 2012 Hello, Judy, I have added you to my prayer list. I will put you in the prayer list in my church. God Bless you especially during this time in your recovery.

They still haven’t discovered the cause for sure, but I was very fortunate. It was a blood clot that they think might have formed in one of the chambers of my heart. When it broke free, it then split into three and thus affected 3 sections of my brain. I was paralyzed on my right side and I couldn’t speak. It struck suddenly without any warning just as I was going to eat something. Fortunately my husband was there and he found me slumped over and wedged between the table and chair. He immediately called an ambulance and they got me to the hospital in just a short time. There they gave me an IV of a clot busting substance and I gradually started to come out of it. I had a lot of therapy in the hospital and will have more the next few weeks, but I’m told that I should be able to get back most of what I lost. In the hospital they kept telling me how fortunate that I was that they were able to get to me so fast, because that drug has to be used within the first 3 hours for it to work. Otherwise people that have a stroke can have permanent damage.
