'Somebody told me that on that age you can easy hidden by
a stoke.
There for I sent you the text under, so if you see me fall you
know what to do
.Perhaps this is something for your blog.
It is cold here and snow again.'
So, if he should fall over we should check four things:
- Can he smile?
- Can he make a simple sentence?
- Can he raise both arms?
- Can he move his tongue easily from side to side?
It seems that if stroke victims are identified as such quickly,
they can be restored to normal health - so if he fails any of the
above tests, call the emergency services.
This is applicable across the board, BTW - not just to Leo.
Here is Tilling today, basking in the sunshine...this evenings meeting at the MJC was chiefly concerned with
how much wine and pizza we had to order to feed those of you
that are turning up to paint the building this weekend.
Do come! Open to all, slosh a bit of paint about (just drop in for
an hour or two, no great commitment required) drink wine eat
pizza have a laugh.
