Imagine this: A woman in her early 60s feels suddenly nauseated, exhausted, and can’t stop hiccuping. She has an odd headache she can’t explain. The ER doctor says it’s probably a stomach bug and sends her home. Six hours later, she returns by ambulance — after suffering a stroke.
Rate yourself right now on a scale of 1-10: How confident are you that you (or the women you love) could spot the difference between a minor issue and a stroke emergency? Hold that number. If it’s below an 8, you’re not alone — and the information ahead could save a life.
