Nothing could have prepared Judy Sheindlin for what happened during one of her live shows, but she’s had more than her share of eye-opening court cases.
Judy Geller, who played Judge Judy, suffered a mild stroke while performing in front of an audience in 2011. Geller is currently executive producing The Judy Justice Show.
Judy spoke about the horrific incident and said she thought she might have suffered a transient ischemic attack (TIA) while appearing on live TV.
“People who have been following me for 15 years have noticed that something is off, and I think that’s a really good thing because they say, ‘Don’t go there,’ without having to ask,” Judy told Good Morning America. “- They called EMS.”
The 79-year-old entertainer “started asking questions in slow motion,” and producers called 911.
Judy said she is healthy despite doctors’ concerns that she may have suffered a “minor stroke”.
“I had symptoms that could have been a transient ischemic attack, but they went away quickly.”
Judy has had no more seizures and is healthy. He even has a new show.
When asked if she was considering quitting her broadcasting job, she replied: “I’m not tired.” Tennis or golf are not my sports. I have no intention of learning mahjong, checkers or chess.
“I know what I like. “If I already know what I like, why would I want to learn something new at this point in my life?”
After 45 years of marriage, Judy and Jerry Sheindlin celebrated their wedding anniversary this year. Judy has a fantastic personal life off camera as well. They got married about a year apart but have since reconciled and been happy.
