May is Stroke Awareness Month

May is Stroke Awareness Month, which makes this a great opportunity for you to familiarize yourself with some important information that can help save your life or the life of someone you know!

Strokes occur because of a lack of blood flow to the brain, which can kill nearly 2 million brain cells for each minute the stroke goes untreated.
