We had a good time. Eva went for walks and beat Carleton in two games of ping pong. A few hours later, we received a phone call from our granddaughter Rayna, saying that Eva had had a stroke and was in the ICU at Allegheny General Hospital, conscious but had no feelimg or ability to move the left side of her body and unable to speak. She had blood clots on her brain.</div><div class=""><br clear="none" class=""></div><div class="">Not much sleep for us Monday night.</div><div class=""><br clear="none" class=""></div><div class="">Tuesday morning we headed back to Pittsburgh, and during the day learned her condition had stablized. We stayed at a motel Tuesday night when we were able to say goodnight to her over the phone. She didn't talk but understood us. A Wednesday morning phone call to the nurses station indicated that she had been able to move her arm and leg and could speak a little. We arrived at the hospital mid morning and found her mostly resting with her eyes closed. Ahren and Charity were there. Ahren, Carleton and I sang songs to ber that she requested--camp songs, hymns, and Christmas carols. She loves having visitors and listening, when she can't talk. She is receiving food intravenously to prevent aspiration and also a blood thinner. She has had an MRI and another scan. Heart is good as is blood pressure and no bleeding on the brain. Her left carroted artery has a 99% blockage which doctors believe was the cause of the stroke. She will need to have surgery on it as soon as she is strong enough, perhaps in a week or so.</div><div class=""><br clear="none" class=""></div><div class="">During the day she became more alert, talking more and joking with many visitors, such as pointing her red index finger ekg monitor and saying, "ET phone home." So, she is making progress slowly but surely. The main thing now is regaining her strength and mobility.
