INFORMATION EVERYONE SHOULD KNOW.........PLEASE READ THIS AS IT IS VERY 
IMPORTANT WE ALL LEARN THESE SIMPLE STEPS TO SAVE ANYBODY'S LIFE. THANK 
YOU............... Blood Clots/Stroke - They Now Have a Fourth Indicator, the 
Tongue.STROKE:Remember the 1st Three Letters....S.T.R. 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).  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, Ingrid 
went about enjoying herself the rest of the evening.Ingrid's husband called 
later telling everyone that his wife had been taken to the hospital.  At 6:00 
pm Ingrid passed away. She had suffered a stroke at the BBQ. Had they known how 
to identify the signs of a stroke, perhaps Ingrid 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. It is sunny out today.)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 TongueNOTE: 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.
