Irish Coffee

An email I just received. Do you think your doctor even knows what an Irish Coffee is?    I know its anecdotal but that's the starting point for most research.

We have a friend who had a stroke in 2008 and was given an Irish Coffee as soon as it was discovered before they brought her to the hospital.  She was conscious and coherent, but completely paralyzed on the right side.  After two days, she suddenly came out of it, suddenly realizing something was “terribly wrong”—but…praise God, she was holding up her right hand and able to move her right leg!  She was in rehab for two weeks and went home with limited abilities.  Since then, she periodically has what her family believes are TIAs.  They immediately give her an Irish Coffee and within a short time she is okay.
