REALLY not making a fuss


However, I am freaked out.  Today, Frank and I were at the local community center, with a few of his painting.  A craft fair of sorts.  Several other area residence were there as well.

A neighbour who lives up the street from us was there too, selling her sister's jams.  Just after lunch, she started to feel weird.  She is 50 and in excellent shape, not fat and not skinny. Walks every day and works full time in Montreal.  She began to lose  feeling on the right side of her body and slur her words.  We called 911.  We knew she was having a stroke.  They arrived in about 20 minutes, the time it takes to get from Lachute to Lakefield. By the time they got there, she was not understanding simple questions and had become mute.  They took her to St Jerome and we heard later she was then transferred to Nero Institute in Montreal.  She was just selling jam.

Please say a prayer for Corinne - she is a really nice lady.  Things do not look good.
