Heng may have recovered fully or even miraculously from the medical point of view but a simple observation of his demeanour shows him up to be a pale shadow of his former self. He really looks pale and weakened despite his brave public smiles and hand gestures. He should announce his own retirement asap and enjoy his millions now that he has been brought back from the brink of death or permanent incapacity!
heng did not have a stroke, the lying shit times just said so. Most likely, he had a TIA.
While transient ischemic attack (TIA) is often labeled “mini-stroke,” it is more accurately characterized as a “warning stroke,” a warning you should take very seriously.
TIA is caused by a clot; the only difference between a stroke and TIA is that with TIA the blockage is transient (temporary). TIA symptoms occur rapidly and last a relatively short time. Most TIAs last less than five minutes; the average is about a minute. When a TIA is over, it usually causes no permanent injury to the brain.

[h=4]Why do some clots dissolve while others don’t?[/h]According to Dr. Emil Matarese, director of a primary stroke center at St. Mary’s Medical Center in Langhorne, Pa., the body has naturally occurring clot-busting agents. “Eventually all clots will dissolve, but whether there is damage depends on how long the clot is in place,” Dr. Matarese said. However, because there is no way to predict when a clot will dissolve on its own, time is of the essence. “Whenever you have stroke symptoms, dial 9-1-1 immediately and get to the emergency room so you can be evaluated. Don’t wait to see if the symptoms go away.”
While the vast majority of strokes are not preceded by TIA, about a third of people who experience TIA go on to have a stroke within a year. “TIA is a warning stroke and gives a patient time to act and keep a permanent stroke from occurring,” Dr. Matarese said. “By recognizing TIA symptoms and getting to the hospital, the patient can get help in identifying why the TIA occurred and get treatment — either through medication or surgery — that can prevent a stroke from occurring.”
If a survivor experiences TIA after they have had a stroke, they should go to the emergency room immediately because something in their treatment plan has not worked.
