Monday night I thought I had a stroke. My hands wouldn't work together,
my speech was slurred and I couldn't answer questions. Went to the
hospital for two days and found out this incident was caused by high
blood pressure and high cholesterol, and was likely spurred by high
stress. By chance they also found out that I have an aneurysm which is
an enlarged aorta, one of the tubes that comes out of my heart.
As you can tell Musings On Iraq will be on leave for a bit. I have some
old articles I wrote before I got sick that I will post and will
eventually get back to Iraq full time but I'll need a little time off.
Thank you to all the readers.
