This Is Ann, Telling It As it is on a Tuesday In A hospital room, Thankful I’m Alive.
T.I.A. stands for Transient Ischemic Attack. The Incredible And Thorough Investigators At This Institution Are Thinking I, Ann, had a T.I.A. yesterday.
Terrifying Incident, Actually, That Included All The Indications of A stroke. This Is Absolutely not how This Individual Anticipated spending her vacation.
These Images Are what This Insomniac Accumulated yesterday:

This Is A T.I.A. video on youTube, I Assume:
Thanks In Admiration to Those Intrepidly Assisting yesterday — my Terrifically Intelligent Amiga Deb, the Emergency responders on Jekyll Island, the staff at this wonderful Georgia hospital, my Boston cardiologist Deeb Salem (who called in response to my email and talked to the doctor here) — and to Those I Adore (That Includes All of you!)



I’m pleased that is what it was. This must have been more frightening for you than for most.
Thanks! I’m Alright, Derrick.
Dear Ann. What a horrifying experience. I hope you recover soon. Thank you for sharing so many wonderful pictures.

I am so very appreciative that the Georgia folks were able to correctly treat your TIA and you today are not MIA, my great friend Ann.
Thanks, my very great friend Mark.
What a frightening experience for you! So glad it is resolved 💐🙏🏼💖
Thanks, my friend!
glad you understood the warning signs and were quickly and kindly cared for and checked out. glad it was not as bad as you may have anticipated. glad you are still here to tell your story. I would like tia to stand for: take it always-seriously.
Thanks! I’m Always grateful for you, beth.
I’m glad to hear you’re ok enough to write about this. Best wishes for a speedy recovery and a safe trip home.
Thank you so much!
How scary! Although it sounds like you received wonderful care and that you have recovered. Are you able to continue your vacation now or do you have to go home?
I wish you good health and no more TIAs.
I’m hoping to get out of the hospital today and rejoin my tour. I’ll be flying back home on Friday as scheduled. Thanks for your concern, Maureen.
I am very sure that Michael will be happy to see you!
Yikes!!! Hope you are feeling better. Love, Maria (T.)
I am feeling better, Maria, and thanks for the comment!
Oh Ann, I have heard of medical tourism, but thought it was optional when you’re on vacation! Big (gentle) Hugs
Thanks for the hugs!
Oh dear! I’m so glad you’re ok now. Definitely not what you’d planned to do!
It’s never what you expect, Debbie. Thanks for the comment!
That’s no way to spend a vacation! Glad to hear your symptoms are resolving and you didn’t have a stroke. Continued recovery so you can enjoy your time away. I’ve never had anything exciting happen on vacation.
I have way too many exciting things happening and thanks for your kind comment!
Whew!
You said it, Doug!
This Is Amazing. I’m so glad you’re feeling better and that your vacation wasn’t too disrupted. And, given where you are, I hope you got to see Doctor Jekyll and not Mister Hyde.
There are a lot of good doctors here, Chris, and I appreciate your good nature, always.
Ohmygosh Ann, how frightening! So glad that this tale had a happy ending and your vacation is back on track…❤️❤️
It did have a happy ending and now I’m home safe and sound. Thanks for another lovely and loving comment, Lori.
Oh dear Ann! How frightening this must have been. I’m so relieved to read to the end of this post that you are doing well. It sounds like you have been in very good hands, including your friend in getting you the attention you needed. Bless you, dear one! Hugs!!
Hugs back at you, Debra!
