- Please read before watching. Thanks.
First of all, I'm so glad Rob is OK. I love seeing him at cons. Not sure if it's appropriate to call a grown man adorable, but he just is. And OMG, he's so funny. Makes the cons so much better. He's a great actor and an awesome singer and such a nice guy. And I'm just glad he's fine now.
In case you didn't know, Rob had a stroke at the end of TorCon last year. If I remember correctly, it happened at the end of autographs. Rob suddenly couldn't speak anymore but didn't know why. Richard took him to the hospital and that's where they found out Rob had a stroke and where they saved his life.
At the con Richard told us about the FAST rule, a way to recognize a stroke.
Face - Does your face look uneven? (Can you smile?)
Arms - Raise both arms in front of you. Does one drift down?
Speech - Say something. Does it sound strange?
Time - You have a very limited time frame to save your life. So if you even suspect you had a stoke (you might not have all of these symptoms), go to the hospital or call 911 (or the equivalent). Better safe then sorry.
I've actually known about this rule for a while. Sometimes I have these really bad headaches and half of my face feels numb, so I've done the FAS part of the rule quite a few times in my life. Luckily, didn't have to get to the T.
And now, about this video. Just like my St. Jude and Jensen's cake videos, I'm only uploading this because I think it's something members of SPN family who couldn't attend the con should see.
The camera wasn't manned, per se, most of the time. (I mean, I was holding it, but that's about it.) I did adjust it once or twice, but that's why you don't always see everything. Sorry.
OK, now go watch the video and remember the FAST rule. - Розваги
When Rob cries - we ALL cry!
When Misha cries - we ALL cry!
Fandom family!
If Robbie hadn't have survived , the cons and the show just wouldn't be the same... Thanks to Richard's and Misha's quick thinking, they saved Rob's life. Again, I can't imagine this world without Rob Benedict in it. I'm so happy that he recovered and is doing wonderful. We love you, Rob!! #AlwaysKeepFighting. Also, I just find it heart warming that Jensen, Misha, and Rich actually stayed with him in the hospital. And the fact that Rich said that they would all take a bullet for Robbie is beyond words. We truly are an SPN family. The way we look out for each other is amazing. No matter what, we will always have each other.
I love that Misha en Jensen paid for Robs family to come over.
It's times like these that make me really glad MIsha is a certified EMT and everyone was so quick
He’s actually certified? I thought they were joking when they said that😅. Thank god
That is awesome to hear about Misha. Thank you.
Whoever disliked this... is heartless.
SJ Headon Maybe they just disliked that Rob had a stroke?
It's just so re-assuring that these guys know each other so well that they can talk to eachother. Like Richard thought something was off with Robert, asked Misha and Misha told him to get him to the ER. And when they got to the ER, Richard called Misha who told Jensen, and they both hightailed it to the ER for their friends.
I very much hope that it's appropriate to call a grown man adorable because I've actually called Rob adorable to his face. Because he is. He is an amazing singer and he's rocking it as soon as he is allowed to sing, and the rest of the time he's just this adorable shy kitten. I'm so glad he's doing well and is healthy.
misha looked seriously sad like he was about to cry :'( but no worries rob (the supernatural god) can never die!
poor Rob, im so glad Riche Jensen and Misha were there to help Rob :(
The lovely beautiful Misha
I hate seeing them cry, it literally breaks my heart. And how does someone dislike this?
It's so beautiful to see how much this cast (and the fans) care for each other
i love these conventions and i love the fact that rich and rob and sebastion haven't been on the show/ haven't been a regular on the show for almost 4 seasons yet they are at almost all these conventions! its so super cool to see that they still take the time out of their life to hang out with everyone.
This is painful to watch, really.
I am just glad he is okay, and heatlhy now. I was terrified when I first heard the news.
I am French so when I saw this video, I thought a 'stroke' wasn't something so bad, just something you go to the hospital and it's ok. But I translated it (for the French who pass by, it's an 'AVC') and I was like 'omg omg omg he had a stroke he might be dead omg it's horrible omg omg' and I was so shoked I cried.
And then I was so happy to see that after a year he's fine !
JDana HTZL Same! But I'm from Germany😊
aw Misha looks like he's gonna cry :(
Thank you for posting this: even though I'm a sobbing mess now, I'm so happy to see it. And to see Rob back and looking so well. I've met him a couple of times and I'm completely under his spell. He is adorable (I think it's perfectly appropriate to call him that!!) and also so humble and funny and ridiculously talented...
I'm a 'Misha girl', but Rob is one of my favourite things about attending cons. Much love to him x
More than friends. Family.
This is scary as hell. Rob and I are the exact same age. Talk about an eye-opener, god. So glad he's okay, and I love how this cast all comes together at important moments.
It's sadly not about the age.. my cousin has a stroke when he was 17!!!!! So..... but he is now 32 and fine!!
And I had a stroke when I was 15... it can happen to everyone
I kinda wanna cry...I love chuck so much. I love rob. OMG thank god he's ok.
Awww this is so sweet. Misha was ready to cry. This is what a friendship should be like
Beautiful cast.xx
I literally was crying during all of this because it's so heartwarming to see friendships like his and how he recovered so quickly and that he is okay now.
WHAT TWO PEOPLE DISLIKED THIS IT BROUGHT TEARS TO MY EYES HEARING HOW CLOSE THEY ARE AND 😭
I'm just so glad that Rob made it through the tough and scary time, if not I would not have known about him and hear his amazing songs he had created with his band.
(yes I'm late to the spnfam, discovered spn december 2019)
misha is a special person such i lovely man.xx
Hes def one of the best
Wow. I'd never heard this whole story before. Just when I thought I couldn't love the SPNFamily more... :`)
Thank goodness there were people there who were observant and knowledgeable enough to realize that there was something seriously wrong with Rob. I'm so happy for his survival and recovery.
Thankyou for sharing this. So glad Rob is okay! He's such a sweetheart, and its so great to see these guys taking care of eachother when they need it most. I hope all of fandom can learn from this.
omg that so lovely so glad Rob ok now and that he had such grate friends with him it just proves how close you l are in real life and SPN family are the best stay well Rob xxxxx
Thank you so much for posting this. I was at TorCon when this all happened and actually saw Rob a few hours prior to everything - though we didn't find out about it until months later. I am so glad that he is back and recovered. He really is a very special man.
What did you see/hear at the time - did Rob just disappear from the convention and then they just had someone say he's unwell or what did they say?
I love these guys so much. Misha and Rich are heroes 💛💙
Thank you for sharing the video and for spreading awareness about how identify the signs of a stroke! My dad had one 23 years ago, he was 32 and we didn't know what was going on because we had no idea about the signs and because we had an idea that strokes only happened to older people - clearly, we were wrong. My dad was left with some motor sequels and speech impairment but he has recovered A LOT through all those years and he has a normal life, despite everything. Watching the video and seeing all the love they have for each other it is inspiring - my dad's recovery was a mix of his will to get better and the love he received from his family and friends.
Thank you for sharing, again. Rob, you're amazing, man!
Thank you for posting this. Thank you.
I love thisi Fandom! #SupernaturalForever
Me too. :-)
love misha collins
SO glad he's okay❤
This cast is beautiful
Can they stop making me cry SO FUCKING MUCH?! I guess no😭
Shout out to those amazing volunteers, Jen, Jen and Mandy! Love you guys! Best crew I’ve ever worked with!
Thanks for beeing such a friend Richard!!! ❤❤❤
You go Rich
im ded i died im not crying ur crying
thankyou so so much for this video. it's really lovely to be able to see Rob get the appreciation and love he deserves from the fandom as not all of us could be there at the moment in this video to give it to him. so it's wonderful to see that his fellow cast mates were so amazing and that all the fans really made sure he knew how important he is to the supernatural family.
Thats why its good to have Emergncy First Aid or Standard First aid training. And to know the signs of Stroke.
This makes me cry because i was the ony one there in the middle of a shop with my mum when she was having her stroke a couple of years ago. So i know exactly what these guys felt like in those moments in the hospital.
The second I noticed Misha was crying, I cried
I started crying watching this oh god, I'm so glad hes ok
What do you mean? Its just raining on my face.
Thank you so much for posting this video and all of the info with it! I had no idea about the FAST rules, it's something everybody should be taught...
That was beautiful
Aw Rob was crying 😭😭💞
Okay. Not gunna lie. Greatly dislike Chuck. Love! Rob. He is so sweet and kind. A wonderful musician and incredible friend. The world is better with him in it, and I am beyond glad he made it through his ordeal so well. Keep on rocking, you beautiful man.
I have the tears,noooooo.
Misha and Richard I me them both
Thank you for sharin this amazing moment XD!!!
Thank you. I cried good tears watching this. I needed this video.
awww, this is so sweet!
I didn't realise he had a stroke. I panicked after seeing a post on Facebook googled saw this and burst into tears. I am so glad he is ok and doing good. But I would ask the cast to stop panicking me please. From Rob to Jared to Misha etc. just be careful!!!!
Same here! I had to google it, about what was what and when. And since a few months I've a really bad feeling about Jensen 😨
I am glad everyone's quick thinking save the Rob, the precious tiny God. To think we would never have anymore episodes with God in them.
I was there I met him
Family :)
Couldn't have said it better :)
I AM FUCKING CRYING WHAT THE FUCK
My cousin was about 13 when she suffered a stroke because of her eye infection. I didn't even know that a stroke can be life threatening, unless I read the description. Crap! I just thought it cause paralysis for a while. oh, man I'm so relieved for my baby cousin. I had no idea. ok, I feel a little out of sorts now. Eliann or whatever your name is, you are how I would hope all superfans would be. Intelligent and thoughtful. I live across the road from a hospital. I wonder if I will make it across the road if I do a FAS exam and it looks like it I might be suffering a stroke. Can you walk when you have a stroke.
It depends on how serious it is, but chances are no. My father had a stroke about 10 years ago and he was dizzy and slurring his words. He could only walk with assistance. Because he also suffers from diabetes and is literally the most stubborn person on earth, he did NOT get medical attention until the next night (when I, his equally stubborn daughter) finally called an ambulance. He thought his blood sugar was out of whack, which did confuse us with some of the symptoms. The bottom line is, it's better to call 911 and have it be a false alarm than to wait and possibly regret it. Now my father has short term memory loss and lost his driver's licence due to his vision being permanently damaged. I'm so glad Rob fully recovered, and I'm sure it's because of the speedy response of his friends. Time really is a huge factor with a stroke.
Also, know that if someone's dizzy and slurring their words, and especially if they have incontinence then too, *don't* think it's just that they're drunk or something - call 911. It's serious in either case and it's better to call them and have them go "no it's not serious" and hang up than to not call and possibly have the person get these major issues.
(Alcohol thins the blood and thus makes it more likely that you'll have a stroke, so be wary of this if you're out drinking or something like that - don't let them "sleep it off" because they may well drop into a coma and never come out of it.
So why end the show
You have to end it some day, even if it pains you to..nothing can go on forever
