Stroke is awful, and time is critical. I'm glad you got treatment promptly.<br /><br />In general, people, we should all know the <a href="http://www.strokeassociation.org/STROKEORG/WarningSigns/Stroke-Warning-Signs-and-Symptoms_UCM_308528_SubHomePage.jsp" rel="nofollow">signs of stroke </a> and don't be shy about getting help immediately. It might be a false alarm, but maybe brain cells are dying RIGHT NOW while you're waiting. Call. Now. <br /><br />Thus endeth the PSA for today.

It seemed to me to make the story a slice of a plot to exploit and not a whole plot that needed to be developed and then expressed in 95 words( 100 less the prompts).<br /><br />I am sure the new format takes a slightly different perspective to judge properly so take your time.Craig Fhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07157301156577795781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17040756.post-56869538292890139092016-05-03T08:51:32.023-04:002016-05-03T08:51:32.023-04:00So Dena is going with 1984.
