Small or not, a stroke is serious. I hope you're doing okay. I hope you had immediate medical attention when you had that stroke. A friend's mother had a small stroke recently too. Luckily, her kids were there when she started having it and called 911. A person gets admitted faster if the ambulance brings you in. Anyways, she's doing fine now. My point is that she had immediate care.
So, Ruminator, let us know of your progress and hopefully you're back to normal. And take care of your health. We hope to see here for a long time.
