Recently, I've been seeing an alarming number of posts on Stroke Survivor Group Pages on Facebook that scare me. What scares me is the lack of common sense and knowledge about personal health & wellness. I'm seeing posts/threads about folks having multiple strokes. When I say multiple, I mean MULTIPLE. Like 5+!! Holy Cow!! I had just 1 and it scared me into submission. I give!! I can't do anything the same ANY MORE!!! I've even seen someone on a stroke survivor Facebook group asking the following question.. "If I start back smoking, am I more likely to have another stroke?" That question is what scares me the most. The multiple strokes are one thing. I have friends that have had multiple strokes. But to survive 1 and then do something that will increase your chances of a repeat stroke is just plain crazy and if you really have to ask that question, then its time to educate yourself. The American Heart Association or the American Stroke Association are great places to start. Just click on the names of these organizations in this post and you will be directed there. PLEASE visit these sites and educate yourself about strokes and cardio vascular diseases. Be Blessed and Be a Blessing!!
