A funny thing happened to me 6 days ago...I woke up with a numbness on the left side of my face and thought I was having a stroke. Rushed to the ER, where a CT scan confirmed it was not a stroke but Bells Palsy. I don't plan on having a long-term relationship with this disturbance but I do embrace the experience with love, positivity and laughter. I kind of like my crooked smile, my daughter says "it's got swag." Her attitude and my own will go a long way in beating this. I'm taking Prednisone, and have also started accupuncture with remarkable results after just a few days.I haven't said anything on FB yet, because I am in between jobs with a contract pending and I don't want it to somehow impede my chances. But I have told a few close friends privately to just keep me in your prayers. I plan on beating this with a full recovery, things could have been so much worse. Life is still very, very good but I could use all the prayers I can get. Thank you
