Just got back to Florida.

My grandmother had a stroke (on Thanksgiving) and for the first 24 hours we thought that it might be cancer. (The initial scans showed a mass in the brain, that later turned out to be the damage caused by the stroke.) She's lost some of her visual field, but there isn't any loss of motor or cognitive function.

So very scary, but could have been worse. She's obviously very grouchy about the frustration; therapists and appointments and such, but all things considered this wasn't as bad as a stroke this size usually is.
