Thank you for your valuable information on what to look for in a stroke. The smile, talk and raise both arms technique is a fast and effiecient way to determine if someone is suffering a stroke. Using the first three letters in the word stroke is also a great way of remembering this technique. All too often it is an emergency that we panic and forget what to do. Knowing these three things and having an easy system to remember them by can make all the difference in saving someone’s life. Thank you again fo your very useful information.
