We got Elaine down to the Emergency Room at the Seward Hospital about 3:45pm on Sunday afternoon. We had an excellent Roast Beef Dinner at noon. After some newspaper reading and Elaine working on "Word Search" she decided to take a nap which was pretty normal. She woke up with a headache and had problems expressing herself. I called Carolyn who was on her way home from Lincoln and came right over and we took her down to the ER. The people there did a great job getting her checked out, pictures taken and ready to go by Ambulance to Bryan West. We stopped by our unit but Carolyn, Julie and I got down to the 6th floor where Elaine was being treated. The images taken in Seward were reviewed and it appeared that it may have been a stroke of some type. She was hospitalized with a TIA stroke on March 4, 1918. The treatment provided to her at Bryan seemed to bring her close to normal speaking ability but they wanted to do further MRI and CTA test today. Carolyn and I got down about 9:30 this morning and she had already been through the test. She seemed to feel pretty good and ate a part of her lunch. I was able to get copies of today's test information on our Bryan Portal and saw no "Red Flags". It is in medical terms but am still hoping that she can come home tomorrow.
