Hooch is needy this week

Well, when it rains, it pours...

0300: I just got home from admitting my husband to the hospital, he had what they call "mini stroke" or TIA. Symptoms have resolved, he is in for meds and observation. Scared the <deleted> outta me. Only 52 years old for cripes sake!! I'm sure he'll be fine, but I don't mind sayin' I was fine at the bedside, and cried when I got home. Makes you realize just how lost you'd be without 'em. So...more good vibes please, coming our way, I'd really appreciate it. You guys are the best cheering section EVER!!!

Love from your friend Hooch

I truly hope he gets better and that you can identify what needs to be done to prevent future tragedy. My thoughts and prayers are with the both of you.

here's hoping for a complete recovery.
you're both in my prayers..I'm feeling sure things will be fine..early detection and bigger and better treatment options have really improved the odds and given cardio patients a big new outlook...
good luck. You'll both be enjoying the next harry potter in no time.

Best wishes for a speedy recovery. The good news is I know a couple of people who have had mini-strokes and made complete recoveries. He'll just need to watch his health going forward and make sure he takes the medication. Keep your chin up.

Just curious... what is TIA? I hope your hubby is doing all right... Send him my wish and hope he will be doing great! Please take care of him!

Well guys, the news is good...no GREAT...all testing shows no damage to brain, no blocked vessels, everything in good working order. I brought Capt Jack home today after a nice relaxing ride out in the country in the Magic Pumpkin with the top down!!

ALL his symptoms have resolved, no residual damage, ready to rock n' roll! You don't know how much it means to me to have you guys here, supporting us, you are the BEST!!
Thank you all, from the bottom of my butt

(well, it's bigger than my heart

)!!

hauntmaster: a TIA is a Transient Ischemic Attack...you can have signs of stroke, but they go away without residual damage. (You might have heard it called a "mini-stroke")

Jeez! Whew... I hope your man is doing great, huh?? Yeah, I hope he's doing fine by now... What else did the doctor find something wrong or not?
