MRIs, EEGs and who knows what other test they are doing...

I talked to Al  about 6:30 pm Wednesday at the Hospital. He was cracking jokes and sounded like his jolly old self. But, he is in there because one side of his face went numb for unknown reasons. That is why all the tests. He spent the night Tuesday and will again tonight.

As Al put it: the Doctors are "practicing" medicine on him... uglystupid2 trying to figure it out.  Shocked

But again, he was in great spirits. Let's hope for the best.  cooldude

Oh yeah, I asked him if he had a stroke and first he said yes, then no,... he is not sure if it was a stroke or not yet.  Smiley

Medication may be involved.  Grin

Here he is at Brushy Moutain Pen last weekend:

Prayers also from Texas.  Sounds almost like TIA (transient ischemic attack) or mini-stroke.  Trust all will be back to normal soon.

Hmmm, what is normal?  Ponder on that one, Big Al.
