    Can't believe I missed a new MOTW. Congrats Carlos, it was nice to read about your life. The pictures of your frogs and fish are beautiful. Sorry to hear about your TIA but it's good that you got treatment. I'm dealing with someone right now (which is probably why I missed MOTW) that ignored signs, had a stroke early this week and didn't go to the hospital. I forced him to go and he found out that he had actually had previous strokes that he was unaware of (or that he ignored). So I am so glad that you are here with us still to share your wisdom

    Thank you Patsy ! Actually, I lost control of my left foot for 20-30 minutes and had palpitations (130 pulse) for couple hours. Did not go to emergency room until the next morning when my sister chew me up on the phone and the Tricare appointment lady told me to hung up and dial 911 ! So I took a shower and drove myself to Sentara's emergency room where the ball started rolling... men ! Did found out in there it's very important to reach emergency room within 4 hours of TIA, because they have better treatment options to prevent permanent damage .

    Yes MEN! My friend had the stroke on Tuesday and I saw him Thursday and made him go to the hospital. He called himself a cab! I read that it's important to get to the hospital right away to prevent permanent damage. He came home today and his speech is better but he is having a real hard time walking. He lives on the floor above me so needless to say I will never sleep again because I will be listening to him walking around to make sure he doesn't fall!
