Update

Argh! I’m writing this on my iPad in the hospital and accidentally deleted what I just wrote. Note to self: keep saving as I write! So this will be shorter, not that I have anything else to do. 🙂

First, sorry about the glitch in yesterday’s comic. I have now corrected the post and here is the picture again:

I’m writing this about 10:30 PM September 2, and here is a picture of the ER cubicle where I spent most of the day. (Click on the picture for higher resolution.)

Nothing serious, my left arm felt funny in the morning. It worked fine, but I checked with Perplexity and it said I should have it checked at the ER. So Andy drove me and they checked that everything seemed to be working, did an MRI, and connected me to a neurologist via video. He said it was a stroke, and apparently told the doctor here to monitor me overnight just in case.

I brought my iPad with me, of course, and Andy brought me my charger. More later!

    Apparently, I had a stoke so small no one noticed. I lean left when sitting now but I’m not even sure that is the result of the stroke. They found it by accident when I was in the ER after a fall which was NOT related to the stroke. Our bodies are just weird sometimes. I hope yours turns out to be nothing much as well.

    A stroke! Well, was it the bleeding kind or the clot kind? What did the imaging show? Are you on blood thinners?

  6. Catherine says:

    Good you went to check it our properly. Hope the results indicate all is well…

  7. Linda says:

    Yes, it is best to make sure and get things checked, especially where our health is concerned! I will keep you in my prayers, dear Jean. Please take good care of yourself, my friend. Hugs.
