Dave Hess suffers stroke

Dave Hess, the BJ’s long-time man in Washington, suffered a stroke last Thursday in the pressroom of the Capitol. Hess works three days a week part time for the National Journal.

He thought perhaps he was getting the flu and even drove himself home. He was really fortunate because the part of the brain affected, the right rear lobe, is what helps the body maintain balance.

Dave experienced trouble with his eyes which cleared up nicely, but is still having a little trouble with a little dizziness and maintaining his balance and must be careful he does not fall. His sister came from Columbus to Arlington to be with Dave until he is completely recovered which doctors say may be two or three months.
