The Stroke

May 2nd it happened. It was told to us that it would happen again, but when we didn't know. The doctors thought it would happen before he was 14. Well they had one number correct...it was at 44 that Troy had a TIA (transient ischemic attack) stroke. The events of the evening are strikingly clear, however the reason's are not. He was transported to Franklin Memorial Hospital by ambulance, where he underwent several test which didn't result in a stroke diagnoses. It wasn't until they transported him to Bangor that they determined that he did have a stroke. The week of events were a whirl wind. The stories on this blog will fill you in on his recovery.
