A bought 3 weeks ago I went under the knife to get my left knee replaced. About a week later I started being unable to remember names, a couple of days later I got jittery and couldn't say whole sentences. My wife sat me down and looked me in the eye and said "Is it time for 911, all I could do is nod. Most of the next two days are a scrambled up mess or flashes of me going crazy. Then all of a sudden every thing fell into place. I now knew my wife and when the nurse asked me what month it was I could reply correctly and speak whole sentences. My wife told me I had a stroke and the EMT's got me in time for the doctors injected me with a drug that dissolved the blood clot. I remember looking at my knee and realized that is what was hurting during the crazy part. After two more days during which the nurses waked me every 4 hours and asked me questions like "give me your name, what is your birth date? how old are you. what is your wife's name? So finally I get to go home. Talking with my wife I find out the docs diagnosed me as having White brain matter syndrome. What is one of the conditions that brings on dementia. So now it can strike at any time, now or maybe not at all. So there you are and here I am and that is the show.

Oh yes from now on my wife has the only combination to the gun safe and will go with me to the range to avoid "accidents"
