STROKE:
Remember The 1st Three Letters...S.T.R. A friend sent this to me and encouraged me to
post it and spread the word. I agree. If everyone can remember something this simple, we could
save some folks. Please read! :
STROKE IDENTIFICATION: During a BBQ, a friend stumbled and took a little fall - she assured everyone that she was fine (they offered to call paramedics) and just tripped over a brick be-cause of her new shoes. Ingrid enjoying herself the
rest of the evening. Ingrid's husband called later telling everyone that his wife had been taken to the hospital -
Ingrid passed away. She had suffer a stroke at the BBQ. It only takes a minute to read this..
A neurologist says that if he can get to a stroke victim within 3 hours he can totally reverse the effects of a stroke...totally. He said the trick was getting a stroke recognized, diagnosed, and then getting the patient medically cared for within 3 hours, which is tough.
RECOGNIZING A STROKE Just remember the "3" steps, STR... Read and Learn!
Sometimes symptoms of a stroke are difficult to iden-tify. Unfortunately, the lack of awareness spells disas-ter. The stroke victim may suffer severe brain damage when people nearby fail to recognize the symptoms of a stroke. Now doctors say a bystander can recognize
a stroke by asking three simple questions:
S * Ask the individual to SMILE. T * Ask the person to TALK to SPEAK A SIMPLE SENTENCE (Coherently) (i.e. . . It is sunny out today)
R * Ask him or her to RAISE BOTH ARMS. NOTE: Another 'sign' of a stroke is this: Ask the person to 'stick' out their tongue. If the tongue is 'crooked', if it goes to one side or the other that is also an indication of a stroke. If he or she has trouble with ANY ONE of these tasks, call 911 immediately!! And describe the symptoms to the dispatcher.
