Getting back on her feet: Stroke patient goes on to win CrossFit competition
Connie Lankford experienced a lingering headache for more than a week back in March 2021. At least that’s all she thought it was.
“I was about to email my doctor about the headache,” said Lankford, who had just returned to her Hubert home from an out-of-state business trip. “I was going to get an appointment.”
Lankford’s headache continued to intensify, so she laid down in hopes the pain would subside. Unable to shake the headache, she called husband, Kenny, to let him know she wasn’t feeling good. But her words were inaudible over the phone.
