*Stroke has a new indicator*They say if you email this to ten people, 
you stand a chance of saving one life. Will you send this along?*B*lood 
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:**


During a BBQ, a woman stumbled and took a little fall - she assured 
everyone that she was fine (they offered to call paramedics) ...she 
sai**d****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. *


*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!

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 
numberimmediately 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 otherthat 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.

I have done my part. Will you?*
