STROKE: Remember The 1st Three Letters… S.T..R …
My 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.

STROKE IDENTIFICATION:
During a party, a friend stumbled and took a little fall - she assured everyone that she was fine and just tripped over a brick because of her new shoes. (they offered to call ambulance)

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 6:00pm , Ingrid passed away.)
She had suffered a stroke at the party . 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…

STROKE IDENTIFICATION:

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

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 * = TALK. Ask the person to SPEAK A SIMPLE SENTENCE (Coherently) (eg ‘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 the ambulance and describe the symptoms to the dispatcher.

NOTE : Another ‘sign’ of a stroke is
1. Ask the person to ‘stick’ out their tongue.
2. If the tongue is ‘crooked’, if it goes to one side or the other that is also an indication of a stroke.

A prominent cardiologist says if everyone who gets this status shares it; you can bet that at least one life will be saved.

Ever since I could remember, I’ve always thought dance was really cool. In middle school, I’d purposely lie about being in a dance group and winning medals and underground dance comps.

In high school there were people that danced. I wanted to dance too, (even though I played football, I secretly loved dancing). In grade 10 I finally got the courage to “try out”. Personally I knew I was never going to make it. The group of friends they had already created already put me out of the equation. Also, I guess you could say I learn slow.

Majority of the reason I wanted to dance was because it was cool. The cool thing to do. I guess that’s why I never made it.

Praise God for CFC-Youth because now I’ve got the chance that I can to really glorify my God and not just myself. Who cares about looking good for others to see. My God will see the effort I put in and hopefully smile on me. 

To God be the glory,

I was a few moments away from ending my life. Then being the super hero he is, came and saved my butt again and not only that, he also threw in a few blessing for me to have. When giving up seems like that’s all that’s left, He will bring you up.

To God be the glory,

James
