On average, someone in the United States has a stroke every 40 seconds. And stroke is the number one cause of disability in America, yet the leadership keeps putting stroke on the back burner.
Why is this important?
I had low cholesterol and blood pressure, didn't have diabetes, and was a non-smoker. But I lost my career because of stroke. So if you think it couldn't happen to you, think again. More research should be done for its causes and treatment--immediately!
