Coach Mike Ditka suffers 'very minor' stroke
Former Bears coach Mike Ditka suffers 'very minor stroke'
Former Bears coach and Hall of Fame player Mike Ditka was hospitalized Friday after suffering what he said doctors told him was a "very minor stroke." Contacted Friday evening, Ditka said, "I feel good right now and it’s not a big deal." Ditka was at a suburban country club playing cards Friday when he noticed his hands “weren’t working quite right,” and then he had a problem speaking. Ditka, 73, has not had any major health problems in recent years. But in 1988 when he was coaching the Bears he suffered a heart attack. He was back at work within a week. ESPN producer Seth Markman tweeted that Ditka will not be on the NFL shows from Bristol, Connecticut, this weekend. |

sorry but if my heart stops beating I would consider it serious no matter how long it lasts
or if the blood stopped flowing to my brain I would say that was also serious |

What Is a Minor Stroke?
A minor stroke is a major event in life. The symptoms of a minor stroke often are no different from those of a major stroke. A minor stroke is caused when blood flow to the brain is interrupted. Common symptoms of a minor stroke include headache or migraine, nausea, numbness or tingling sensation in the limbs, loss of vision in one eye, problems talking, dizziness and extreme confusion.

**** ESPN.
****ing shameless that in talking about Ditka, they title him as "ESPN analyst." He's a hall of fame player and a super bowl coach for crying out loud. |

Do you really not understand the concept of varying severity of heart attacks and strokes?

So if Ditka was escorting da Bears team bus to the stadium with his car and the bus breaks down leaving Ditka to play every position on the field, how much would da Bears win by?

People who have Myocardial Infarctions do have "minor" heart attacks in many cases... Lots of geriatric pts have had minor MIs and didnt even realize it or call EMS, especially women because they present differently |
