I don't know if anyone has noticed that I haven't been on the Disboards much during the last month or so. I'm in need of prayers - I spent a week in the hospital around Valentine's Day. Apparently I had 4 strokes and the doctors fund a hole in my heart. Currently I am on 4 different medications and had so many different tests - the absolute worse was the spinal tap

, with doctors coming in and out of my room every 1-2 hours. I am a true conundrum -they cannot figure out why it happened in the first place

. I am not allowed to drive since I cannot see past 80% out of the corner of my left eye. I'm also dealing with some short-term memory issues. What a way to end my 25-year teaching gig....

Thank goodness I banked 150 sick days!
