Thanks everyone for your thoughts.


From what I know he didn't have a stroke, but a TIA, a transient ischemic attack. It is often called a mini-stroke and a warning sign for a serious stroke. He has had other cases where he has had symptoms of a TIA but they've never called it that before.

Anyways, when I visited him he acted completely like usual, talking and everything. He had full motion - and was very hungry!
As he told me he was sitting down ready to go downstairs for lunch (he and my grandma Rose live in an apartment type thing for seniors), his arm got really numb and it fell off the armrest of his chair. He couldn't lift it so he lifted it with his other arm and it fell again. He had my grandma call 911.

They brought him in some food just as we were leaving, I helped him and open up his utensils - opened up the iced tea they brought him, hugged him, told him to never scare us again and said goodbye.
