It is vital to recognize stroke symptoms when they occur. During a typical stroke, 1.9 million neurons, 14 billion synapses, and 7.5 miles of nerve fibers die every minute. There are treatments available for certain types of stroke to help stop the damage and restore blood flow, but those treatments can only be used within the first hours of the stroke. So urge everyone to learn the symptoms, to recognize stroke, and to BE FAST!
