Medical Emergency

Still shaking in my boots. Yesterday I put on my old shoes to go for a walk.

My left foot seemed to be asleep … I realized with horror that I could not lift it from the ground. Left side of the body often means a stroke.

I prayed I could get to the phone and call for help before I passed out. I was of course terrified. Can you guess what happened?

Here is a hint: Fit to be “tied.”
