Where do I even begin….

So, lucky me, I woke up Saturday ready to shower and get off the ship to look in the mirror and discover that half my face wasn’t working. Yup! Thought to myself, “what the heck happened.” Being as stubborn as I am I decided to get home and worry about it then. Honestly by the time I woke up and noticed what was going on,if it was a stroke the damage had been done. However, after a quick self-examination and my vitals being very normal, I decided to get home. Now on Monday I called the doctor and got an appointment, and all was well. One of my large groups left on Tuesday for Costa Rica. Wednesday and Thursday went by relatively fast. Friday was the doctor appointment day and thank goodness, NOT A STROKE!! Phew!! Turned out to be a good week considering how it started. Even though it wasn’t a stroke, still gave myself and my family a little scare. It also put some things into perspective and reminded me to slow down and take care of myself.
