We’re running in all directions: work, family, obligations… And we often put our health on the back burner. However, our body tries to warn us long before things get worse. Sometimes subtly. Sometimes more honestly. Until the day we can no longer ignore the signals.

A stroke occurs when blood flow to a part of the brain is interrupted. Without oxygen, brain cells begin to die.
