NHL legend suffers “serious stroke.”

According to the Detroit News NHL legend Gordie Howe has suffered a serious stroke on Sunday and is currently resting with his family in Texas. Howe’s son commented on the situation and the news is not good: “Basically, sometime in the early morning on Sunday he suffered a pretty bad stroke,” Howe’s son, Dr. Murray Howe told the Detroit News. “The right side of his body is very, very weak. He’s unable to stand without help. He’s able to speak, but very, very difficult to speak. “He knows who he is. He knows the people around him. But it is very difficult for him to get up and walk around. So he is pretty much confined to his bed right now. So we’re just trying to keep him comfortable, and that’s our goal,” added Howe. Howe was inducted into into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1972 and is widely regarded as one of the greatest NHL players of all time. Our thoughts are with the Howe family.
