Way to go VL
if you think someone is having a stroke
1. ask them to smile
2. ask them to raise BOTH arms over their head
and
3. ask them to speak a simple sentence like "it is sunny today" Or "pussy is good"
If they can't.... call 911!!!!!
Thing about TAKING them to ER is that the ambulance can give them meds on the way and I was told I can't drive and perform CRP at the same time. (I know, I know hard to explain the place you were picked up from.)
I'm so glad he made it OK and you are a life saver.
