Every once in awhile, my husband's work sends out a health newsletter. There have been some really great tips in it. This month's issue has something that I think is important to get out there...the warning signs of a stroke.
Symptoms of Stroke:
*Sudden confusion or trouble speaking *Numbness or weakness of the face, arms, legs, especially on one side. *Sudden trouble seeing *Sudden trouble walking *Dizziness or loss of balance * Severe headache with no known cause.
A stroke is the third leading cause of death in the U.S. If you know the signs, you can act immediately. Getting help quickly can save brain tissue and decrease long-term damage.
