Sounds like you need a Zombie tee-shirt ;)

Best Boy (son) was born with parts of his brain dead, but it reprogrammed the rest - you'd never know, and no-one did till they did MRI's and stuff when he was littler

The couldn't give you the anticoagulants so close to your surgery. They had to wait at least 2 weeks from your last surgery. Your stroke was 10 days after the last surgery. 4 more days and you would have been clear. If they had given you the anticoagulants right after your surgery, it was almost guaranteed you would have had internal bleeding around your surgery sites. Or bled around the brain. It was a risk trade. Of the two, the stroke was better than a brain hemorrhage.
