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.
