Question:

Answers:
Well, it seems like a stroke is something that happens at the exact same time it did to your grannie. You need to realize that your whole family and you are at a risk of stroke. I can't REALLY point out the best way to stop one. Getting a massage and plenty relaxation would help. Also it would be helpful for you or your friend to know when a person is having a stroke.
1. They can't say a simple sentence(stumbling, stuttering)
2. They can't raise their arms above their head
3. Being too quiet when usually they'd talk.
Eat healthily, no smoking, boozing or drugging, as little caffeine as possible, lessen the amount of salt and additives in food. Talk to your doctor for more info.
