      Well, if there is an afterlife, and any belief systems about it are true, he’ll be burning eternally and providing an eternal source of entertainment for devils, or getting reincarnated thousands of times as a cockroach that gets stomped on every time.

        it always amazes me. The republicans claim that they’re sooooo christian, but they treat everyone except their inner circle like fucking shit. They claim they are just following the teachings of jesus, but jesus preached looking after each other and caring for others.

    Bell’s palsy. I am fairly certain it is not a stroke. Sorry to disappoint.

      There are a shit-ton of diseases that can make your face droop. I don’t know why everyone always goes to stroke.

      I had Bell’s palsy for about 6 weeks back in 2008. Literally put a line down the middle of the face, and one side has full movement, and the other does not. Just the fact that Droopy Don can blink indicates he does not have Bell’s palsy. I had to use tape to keep my eye shut.

      Not to mention all the other facial movements he has on his entire face.

      The diagnostic difference between Bell’s palsy and facial paralysis due to stroke is that Bell’s palsy gets better in a few weeks. The only way to know it’s not caused by a stroke is when it goes away, or if scans and other diagnostic techniques to detect a stroke show that none has occurred (in which case it’s more likely but not certain).

      So where do you get your fair certainty from?

        Can’t really tell without an exam but bi-lateral arm movements seem even and regular. Speech does not seem to be affected. His doctors haven’t strapped him to a bed to prevent a fall from right leg weakness. All the signs point to just facial nerve involvement and not CNS. Still could be a stroke, but from looking in from the outside, I don’t think so.

          Seeing reports now that he has since made appearances with no drooping and was able to speak coherently (at least his version of it) at length. Does this help the diagnosis?

    High volume activity and movement after a stroke pretty much guarantees a secondary event. Just saying.
