Leung's on Lex/92 (across from the Y) -- they can definitely do this and their prices are reasonable. Rivington Tailor on the LES (Rivington/Orchard) can also do it and will be cheaper (but it's a schlep if you're not in the area). [ Reply | More

[ - ] DH here, and need some help with my wife. An hour ago, she saw a spot in front of her eyes. She closed her eyes for 10 minutes, and now, is having a hard time putting thoughts together. She was reading on the internet, and nothing made sense. She just said to my daughter: "Let's go to the....roost...and watch something to eat" instead of "let's go to the roof and bring something to eat." We are both simultaneously laughing at the weirdness, and freaked out by it. Will call a doctor in about half an hour, but wanted to come here first to see if this sounds familiar to anyone.
