Blood Clots/Stroke - They Now Have a Fourth Indicator, the Tongue

🍃I will continue to forward this every time it comes around!

STROKE: Remember the 1st Three Letters....
🍃 S. T. R. 🍃
STROKE IDENTIFICATION:

🍃Senario :- During a BBQ, a woman stumbled and took a little fall - she assured everyone that she was fine (they offered to call paramedics) ...she said she had just tripped over a brick because of her new shoes.

They got her cleaned up and got her a new plate of food. While she appeared a bit shaken up, Jane went about enjoying herself the rest of the evening.

🍃Jane's husband called later telling everyone that his wife had been taken to the hospital - (at 6:00 PMJane passed away)
She had suffered a stroke at the BBQ.
Had they known how to identify the signs of a stroke, perhaps Jane would be with us today. Some don't die.
They end up in a helpless, hopeless condition instead.

🍃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

Thank God for the sense to remember the '3' steps, STR. Read and
Learn!

🍃Sometimes symptoms of a stroke are difficult to identify.
Unfortunately, the lack of awareness spells disaster. 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 and SPEAK A
SIMPLE SENTENCE (Coherently)
(i.e. Chicken Soup)

✅R *Ask him or her to RAISE BOTH ARMS.

🍃If he or she has trouble with ANY ONE of these tasks, call emergency number immediately and describe the symptoms to the dispatcher.

🍃New Sign of a Stroke ---

✅Stick out Your Tongue!

NOTE: Another 'sign' of a stroke is this: Ask the person to 'stick' out his tongue. If the tongue is
'crooked', if it goes to one side or the other that is also an indication of a stroke.

✅A cardiologist says if everyone who gets this e-mail sends it to 10 people; you can bet that at least one life will be saved.
