Act F.A.S.T to Save A Brain!

If you think your loved one may have had a stroke, or may be having a stroke, act F.A.S.T.:

Face: Ask your loved one to smile. See if one side of her/his mouth droops.

Arms: Ask your loved one to close her/his eyes and raise both arms. See if one of his arms drifts downward.

Speech: Check for slurred or strange speech. Ask your loved one to repeat a simple sentence like, "The flowers look pretty today"

Time to call 9-1-1 and save the brain if any of the above (Face, Arms or Speech) do not check out!
