Return to article: How to Know If Someone Is Having a Stroke
on 10/9/2008 It's a horrible thing to witness. My mother had one about 2 yrs ago. The first thing I noticed in her was her speech, it was WAY wrong!! Fortunately we were only a few miles from a good hospital so we got her to the emergency room before too much damage had occurred. Always be cognizant! Even if it's someone you don't know.....movement can become labored, there is a DEFINITIVE drooping on one side or the other, and if you're not sure, make them talk. You'll hear it! Thanks for getting this out there! 5*

on 8/17/2008 My 28 year old niece just had a stroke last week The doctor in the emergency room mis-diagnosed her and sent her home, calling it fatigue. Maybe he should read your article. :-)
