168 Days, 24 weeks since last TIA

That is so good! A long time (six months) since my last TIA. A TIA is a Transient Ischemic Attack. It is caused by an interruption of blood flow to the brain. Let me describe how my TIAs effect me. I can speak but the words are not what I am wanting to say. My right hand starts to curl and to not respond. Thats it; speech and right hand. But I seem to be completely over it

I am so fortunate. My Dad had a stroke and lived for 17 years with his left arm and leg paralyzed. I can so better sympathize with him now and with the many people I meet in similar condition.
