Houston philanthropist and the legendary owner of Gallery Furniture, “Mattress Mack” Jim McIngvale, says he’s being kept overnight at St. Luke’s Hospital after a stroke scare.

He revealed the news on Tuesday via Facebook Live on his official page. He explained that he felt a tingling in his arm, leg, and face, but true to his nature, his voice felt normal.

The 23-minute video from Mack featured him taking questions and well-wishes from Facebook users. He also asked for prayers over the treatment for the scare while, of course, plugging the latest specials at Gallery.
