I had an episode Wednesday that ultimately led to me being admitted into the hospital. After several tests and scans, doctors concluded that I'd had a TIA (transient ischemic attack) also known as a mini-stroke, and that I've had previous TIAs as they observed small infarcts on my brain MRI indicating such. They didn't find any fresh infarctions, but I did have stroke-like symptoms that day. I've since been released with a cocktail of new meds including blood thinners and a cholesterol reducer to prevent a major stroke and am pretty much back to 'normal.'
I'm struggling with whether or not to tell my 19 year old daughter about this. I don't want to cause her undue worry, but I feel she should probably know what's going on with me.
If this was your dad, would you want to know?
If this happened to you, would you tell your kid(s)?
