I just got off the phone with my oldest sister and they think her husband has a stroke about 1am today, This is the stupid part. They are waiting for Monday to go to the Dr. Because the can't afford ER. His speach is slurred and the left side of his face droops and he is having a hard time walking....... I tried to get her to take him in...... I'm sorry its just a bill. What can they do take their birthdays away from them....... So I'm off to her house tomorrow.......He needs lots of prays..... Thanks alot

I'm glad to hear he's finally getting care. A stroke is nothing to play with. Saving a few dollars on the ER isn't going to amount to much if he messes around and has another major stroke and ends up having to have complete care or died and left his wife with a big funeral bill. Also he could have started having seizures and done complete brain damage.
My mom had a stroke last year and while in the hospital started having seizures which she had never had before. The doctor said that a stroke can often cause you to have seizures. I had a stroke 7 years ago myself and my brother has had 2. Life changes completely after having a stroke.
