An occupational therapist who worked with stroke victims for over 30 years never thought he'd experience a massive stroke himself. It all happened a little over a month ago.
Fifty-three-year-old Matt Humphrey said he woke up on the morning of June 14 not feeling well. After seeing his wife was still asleep, he shut the bedroom door, fed the dogs and went into his daughter's bathroom. As he shut the door, he began coughing.
"All of a sudden, I felt a sharp pain in the side of my head," Humphrey said. "I started seeing bright lights, and I knew I needed to get down or I'd fall. So I got down on my hands and knees." With another hard cough came the feeling of a fuse being lit that started in his middle finger and traveled quickly up his arm. On the floor on his hands and knees, he felt like his "hydraulics" were failing.
