I think it would be a good thing if more people actually learnt how to tell if someone had them. This is very emotional for me as 1 of my Aunt's had 1 a week after seeing my other Aunt who had just been diagnosed with terminal lung cancer. 2 weeks after my Aunt with lung cancer died. The hospital said the stroke was caused by seeing her Sister like that. She looked well but lost her voice & couldn't breathe. It was difficult to see. A week after attending my Aunt's funeral, an old man in the café suddenly turned ill. He said he felt ill but didn't know why. Then he suddenly turned quiet. We went to see if he was o.k. but his face turned lop-sided. They sent for an ambulance but said everything else to those on the other side of the phone except his face was lop-sided. I told them to mention that but they said it wasn't important. I knew it was as it would have told them what was wrong. The paramedics asked if he was having a fit when they came. I said it looked more like a stroke to me. It turned out I was right but no one listened. He could have got treatment sooner if they did. They were all telling me except the paramedics I didn't know what I was talking about. Some apologised afterwards. Luckily he was o.k.
Here is some signs and symptoms to look for when you think someone is having a stroke. Hopefully this will help you in the future.
I know. That's what I told them but no one was listening to me. They said a lopsided face was nothing to do with a stroke. Some people didn't apologise to me when they found out I was right, they just said they were going to do a 1st aid course. Thank you very much for the extra information.
Thank you both for sharing. Xxx
