A Stroke has a new indicator

One of my good friends just had a stroke last Feb. Luckily the guy he was with recognized the syptoms and got him help right away. He was helping his friend work on his car/truck and then started talking jibberish. The guy was with him when he suffered a mild stroke two years before and recognized that the garbled talking was a sign of a stroke. He got him to the hospital and they treated him. He was talking two days later and with physical therapy is now alomst back to normal. He sometimes needs a cane to walk now and uses a brace for his arm. He is working on getting his arm back to 100% again. They ended up finding that he had a hole in his heart and fixed that also. He is only 42! We have known each other since we were 4. Glad the guy he was with recognized the problem and got help right away.
