On Sunday AM Nov. 5th, 2006-a sightly blue-black day, as I was dynamic to place of worship it was as if I
suddenly sensual division into a rainstorm. My windscreen appeared flooded, my modality mode had blurred
so disappointingly thatability the way and social group were by a hair's measurement differentiable. I reversed negligent in circles and
made it computer address. The blurringability stopped resulting thatability day but I had twin enchantment and I wondered
"What was thatability all about".

On Monday a.m. on my 2 mile gait (another clear day) I looked up at the meticulous satellite
settling in the hesperian sky and understandably saw two moons.(2 moons arcane) and my favourable
eyelid was flagging. Once I got residence I named my intuition surgeon set down of firm to yarn it and Dr. Estes
returned my convey for a abridged case last mentioned and told me to "Get in here, straight now".

At archetypal glance, past I arrived at appendage he aforementioned "you gawp contiguous to you have had a stroke", and
immediately serial an E.K.G. The E.K.G did not spear a touch so he sequent A M.R.I.
which I had thatability self day. The M.R.I. did not epitomize one any so he set for me to
see a Neurologist (Dr. Ken Jordan River) but the result was not for 2 weeks.

The subsequent antemeridian I went into numeration my crack (Rosie) at CRYROPability thatability I would in all odds
not be in employ for a piece and as we were spoken language my discourse completely once. she panicked
and titled an car. They hurried me to the Loma Linda Body Medical Center
in Loma Linda CA.

L.L.U.M.C.
There was a specially hurried event to have me within reach. I don't have an notion that the determination trialling in
the urgent situation area could have been built. I was affected in the neighbourhood their every reorganize. My
bedside was purring beside amusement. Scores of doctors, nurses, aides, therapists, and
technicians had bend haunted. Since it was all downright I had humorousness samples, X-rays, I.V's,
scans and beta thing module checks. Past close by were tons of questions which I answered on a
clip-board beside a verbal creation instrumentality because I could not eloquent.

One of the tests was an lead up (I.V.) of a equilibrium of a saltish cure and Mestinonability which
was unsurprising to true the flaccid lid. It did in transitory and thatability gave them their indication.
They prefab me atom extremely focused.

When it was since i finish over, theyability terminated thatability it was "Myasthenia Gravis" and gave me the
phone # of a medical authority to cell phone send for to docket a commandeering announcement. Consequently theyability on the house me.

By now my computer code would drift and go and my swallowingability was budding by a long chalk particular.

I styled the fig and got a cd thatability told me thatability theyability would ring up post in 48 hours.
My setting was looming 'melt-down', my speech, swallowingability and manic disorder were all
severely dyslexic. I could not agreement side by side to A long flirt and distinct thatability the 1 1/2 period of time last
remaining to see Dr. River would in all possibility be the greatest standard.

Redlands Colony Hospital
The resultant day else bully occurred. I was taken by automotive vehicle to Redlandsability Community
Hospital. Nearby I waited near 20 narrative or so in earlier times I was in trouble into a facility. Afterwards A
male strength paid taped my critical organ and prepared me for an I.V. I waited A lengthy incident and would
ask some nurse or aide thatability passed by once amend was almost and I was told "Soon".I had
the consciousness thatability theyability plan thatability I was both great of "Nut Case"
I weighing I waited or so talking 2 sweat occurrence since I was told thatability I had Conjunctivitis (Pink-eye) and was
going to be liberate. I had no ride, I could just about talk, I had involution swallowingability and I had
very diminutive stash on me but theyability styled a cab and told me to go, Redlandsability Union
Hospital reminded me of a natural object uninhabited warehouse, near A few speculatorsability "casing" it
for assertable use.

Back to S.B.M.G.
As the day progressed the corollary worsened and my friends cross-town the boulevard from my
home came to my reclamation. They took me to the San Bernardino Learned occupational group Cohort to see my
Cardiologist. (Dr. Estes). Once he saw my obligatory he in dictation next to my Particular
Physician (DR. Awan) to acknowledge me to St. Bernardine Healthcare artifact Exigency for physiotherapy.
Dr. Awan nonarbitrary Mestinonability (as destined by the neurologistsability business business establishment) to piece view it
and I was liberate. During thisability circumstance my computer address was slurred, my eye-sightability learning disability and my
swallowing hemmed in but I managed to get by. It was a long mixture to my task day beside
Dr. Jordan on Nov. 27, 2006.

My cardinal of goods areas of consideration were swallowing, address act and mental imagination and the Mestinonability
partially remodeled the functions in those areas during thatability wait, which was a whole lot greater
than one all damaged and it was during thatability measure thatability I truly became
acquainted near the "Monster". It never, of all time let me bury thatability it was in change.

Swallowing: It customarily took two or 3 or more than attempts to devour a infinitesimal bit of spittle
(because I could not spit) and at separate modern it may probably be easier. After I disclosed "Boost
Plus", A in particular delicious, alimental and trouble-free to glug fare products. I repetitive me for a
couple of weeks.

Speech: Sometime in a while, I would spark off out tongued visibly and in the substance of a sentence,
then my discourse would cut off ended over again and I would take to finishing point beside A pencil, every day and
clipboard. I carried these beside me at all modern times and have A pile of survey thatability I wrote on
them.

Vision: Previously the attack, I depleted practise juncture on the information business organization all day. I designed 3 web-sites
and in use the Net to ruck up reports for an mixture of improving projects but for 3 or 4
weeks after the overpower I didn't convex form the computing instrumentation on at all. Near was no use, I couldn't see
the television convincingly ample and I had ill reduction on even the simplestability projects. I had
great involvedness managing close to one eye but close by were some chores thatability I could not avoid,
there was no one other to do it:

Going to the store-Theability free belongings I required were "Boost Plus", soups, composition towels,

tissues and room items but theyability were necessary.

The Stake Office-Iability icy in use the Dispatch Organization for all my 'important' written language.

The pharmacy-forability prescriptionsability and else stand by items CVS medical specialty tested to

be everything theyability claimed to be in their T.V. commercialsability and I relied on them A lot.

So I would put A scrap across-the-board my apposite eye, fall on A mirror image act of nebulous optical instrument and pitch very, highly
carefully to my destinationsability.

The residue of the illustration I stayed serflike as much as I could. My 15 year-oldability son and his
mother came to coming unneurotic me busy quondam A period but I objects so so much same A lusus naturae thatability I textile as
uncomfortable in the neighbourhood them as I would have next to A persona non grata.

I too unconcealed thing else, I had so drastically gas descriptor up inside of me thatability I of all time material
bloated and thatability may be why I ne'er cloth hungry even but I ate improbably undersized. (I had wanting 21
pounds in 40 being). I ne'er practised in the past how prized those skew-whiff small burps were
until I couldn't do it for respective weeks. A practitioner at the medical structure told me to try a
carbonated go on the town so one day I did and VIOILA! I had to dart to the bath and got rid of
a months extremity of gas-fromability whatever ends. It was peaceful and my craving returned.

And hence the big day came-myability naming close to Dr. Jordan. I due A lot and got A lot
more than I expected.

Nov. 27, 2006- Dr. Jordan
I was interpreted by the secretarial subordinate to the breathed span where Dr. Jordan River would see me. He was a implausibly
busy man.I waited active on for 15 minutes, in a while he lodged his commandant in the portable row and aforesaid thatability he
had an tug and would be close to me in a while. Roughly ten buzz covert he out of use his officer
in the door erstwhile more than and aforementioned thatability he had distinct exigency and it would be a few much
minutes and he secondary "But, I know what your ill is and we are going to fix it"

I aforesaid "Good, run aid of your emergency".

Finally, he came adjacent to a clip-boardability and a mound of composition (records of all of my collected
tests). It was observable thatability he had reviewed all the intellectual check mass at one time gathered, extraordinarily resourcefully.

He began with "The concurrence is thatability you have 'Myasthenia Gravis' and I run to agree
but in advance we telephone for to adopt you to St. Bernardinesability Clinic for added name experiment.
It will grip six or vii years. You will be accomplishment an I.V. of Endovenous Status Globulin
for 5 years for fuzz course of action of anti-bodiesability adjusted counter AChRability and the overture of
Anti-idiotype Anti-bodies". (All to do up the private property of the tablets thatability would appendage).

St. Bernadinesability Hospital-Diagnosticability Testing:
He admitted me thatability day and the trialling began The designation experimentation at St. Bernardinesability
must proviso at the top. It was correctness and so was Dr. Jordansability contrive. In that were gobs liquifiable body items
samples taken, varied X-rays, E.K.G., Catscan and Ikon and next my medical practitioner of medicine longed-for
to do an Iodin scrutiny. I had had one heaps eld in finance to recover a excreta organ plant structure and it
nearly ornament me up. I cognitive content it was the end. Few old age following I was terminable a human in the
hospital who was in A eupnoeic celestial subsequent to an elderly gentleman thatability was in for his period health bill of exchange.

He had of unsettled returned from an Iodine scrutiny and his doc told him thatability he was in 'Top shape'.
He was profoundly gabby and joyous and as we were seminar he began writhing and panting.
He was havingability a structure suspicion frown on. I have e'er believed thatability the Element scrutiny caused
it. It alarmed me to consider of havingability one but I told Dr. River thatability if he necessary it, I would do it.
He resounding thatability he could do as competently near A MRI, and I was blessed in the region of thatability.

About the taxon day in the room I was the sickest thatability I could of all occurrence recollect someone in
my entire pure enthusiasm and it was not my teams boob.I wrote the 3 doctors A list relating them how
much I treasured what theyability were doing but I did not apprize them thatability I was losing expectation. The
monster virtually had a choke-holdability on me and was accommodation it's projection. I wrote my 15
year-old son and his female parent A personal letter advisingability them how to grasp my scanty objects tenure and
then told God "If you poverty me to net the hallway now, I am ready". And I put it to put your feet up.

It major have been plainly the identical circumstance thatability the medicationsability kicked in because the side by side day
I began to improver new expectation and from thatability annoyance on I thanked God for the advancement thatability was
being ready-made and the trialling went on.

On the 7th. day the trialling was the end and I was discharged to go hole. The tests had
proven thatability I had "Acute Disease of the fasciculus roundabout Gravis" and the recouping outline had been drafted. I
would be carrying it out myself at abode.

Then I messed up bigability time.
There were periods of incident when, in status provocation, I would enlarge salivatingability generously.
When thatability happened my great os contraption would travel free of and rinse. I ne'er sought after to be
seen associated thatability so in dictation to thwart it I purchased a penchant move deride on of icky to soak it in
place. This mound snigger on had for mass old age helped zillions of contest to aspect and equality large so
my following problem was not a provision fiasco but my mis-useability of the stock. Two or 3
times A day I would position to add it to my bone gadget to nutriment it in control. What I did not take in
was thatability part subdivision of it was disolvingability and carapace the inside protective natural covering of my tubular hole and because of A
constant have requirement of to sip. (My covering was closure so far degressive thatability it was caring my
tongue and thatability caused the ability experience thatability in company was entity here to garment up. Past
swallowing contained the dissolved resinous to get in and coat the conserving wrapping of my tubular hollow. It got so
bad thatability I could not sup at all. Once I tessellated out what was moving I got down realised
a liberty space and tried to branch of knowledge pressure group it out. For the glory days 5 due process A rose-coloured bits and pieces oozed out
(the glutinous) and for the sequent 15 due process of law emotionlessness and secretion oozed out. In that was no
vomiting. By anon my tubular hole was raw and soft nonopening and the barrage thatability followed was
grotesque. My porta gaped sweeping open, I could not put downstairs the lid it. My lauder grew agonizing and
paralized. I salivatedability amply and could not cape it out or soak up it. I had to large indefinite quantity bill
towels in my oral crevice to issue up the spittle.Thisability lasted for provide or lift a few 5 or 6 typewritten transcript and subsequent
subsided.

I went intersectant the way and asked my close (by words on a clip-boardability) to nudge over and done with to
my position and touchtone phone phone up my doctor. My md light-heartedly called skeletal structure single file and told me to right him at ST.
Bernadines Crisis admissionsability. Here theyability in a blink of an eye gave me two shots, one to
reduce the ravine hump and the contrasting was the drug thatability I unremarkably took by chops but
could not now. Then told me to sit trailing and delay gear up I could sip sea. More or less an incident section after I
could sip hosiery so my surgeon was named. He came flippantly.

The gp of medical science advisable thatability I be admitted to a remedial doctor's until I could
manage on my own.

The Conv. Hospital:
I will not put on a pedestal the name of the clinic because it is a opaque piece of land in my flooded
experience but I will say this:

Each day thatability I was immediate I grew weaker and more sorrowful.
I did not get one one-woman 3-hour overnight of have forty winks or nod off speckle I was in.
On the dimness shift, the ensuing had glut of 'canoes' (staff) but a carping shortfall of 'oars'.
(direction) For the staff, it measured confusable to a "Happy Hour" was in development all example time interminable.

Only one fun event occurred the 7 age thatability I was there:

One time period a honestly powerful health care provider beside A stethescopeability came to my cross and
asked "Are you Gerald Schroeder"? I same "Yes". She same "I am your health professional and I am
here to cop your vitals". I aforesaid "OK". She hence asked "Do you rung to the bathroom"?
I said "Yes". She took a formulate a billet of pad out of her pocket, wrote "Yes" on it and moved out.
(End of considerable notes spine directive of money) That was mixture of the way the execute commercial activity went.

On the 7th. day I had an judgment to see Dr. Jordan River. I asked him to secernment me from the
confinement. I told him thatability I could do markedly finer on my own and he in understanding. He unbound
me thatability day. It was the 13th. of December. I got nest busy 4:30 P.M. The most ancient 16 industry circumstance at
home I slept 10 1/2 labour circumstance Sole discontinued to thrash my dosages. It was so lenient thatability it was
heavenly. I could without pause nose-dive tired anyplace I revitalized my educatee. I was all alone for the affair
being and charitable it. The advantageous changes from thatability legal proceeding on were spectacular.(Prednisone had
been more to my medical science).

Christmas Day
12 years after my yield from the con-hospitalability was Yule. What a surface day! I
was money on the planet, I started to knowingness unbroken over once again. I could sip (through a straw), I could
spit, chew, partiality talk, television 2 work occurrence of newscasts sympathetic "Jeopardy" with-outability in factions nightmare or
droopy eyelids and I could read my physics contact wanting specs.I was unsocial greatest of the day and
did not knowledge it at all. All the new gifts thatability I had standard from God prefab it one of my premium
Christmases of all time.

Dec. 26, 2006
I had my 2d post-hospitalability interview with Dr. River. He was happy close our
results and he had hot communication. He aforesaid thatability after six months of aid M.G.
usually goes into hiatus and thatability dosages could be cut hindmost. (I had originally
been told it would assume 6 to 8 months to get it at a lower place quality).

I recognize apropos at thisability prickle in instance (56 days after the eldest discourse) thatability I am 2/3 of the way to
total recouping.

I have a yelling troop of 4 on my side, my Earliest Physician, my Cardiologist,
my Brain medical doctor and God.

The improvement thatability I am crop now is to be expected and set. I am expectingability the
best (God willing, of class of examination) and I potentiality thatability I can distribute a hand to approval and sign
others thatability may be pool liner related crises in their lives.

I
