An
inspirational message from one of our spiritual leaders... |
"Trials
and sufferings are painful. They tax us physically and spiritually.
What happens in our trials and sufferings is a disclosure, a revelation,
of what is in us, what we are made of, what sort of integrity we
have. God asks only that we be faithful.
He cares for us accordingly and with sufficient grace. He knows how much we need him. It is necessary that we know it too." -The
Rev. Andrew C. Mead
Rector of Saint Thomas Church Fifth Avenue New York, NY click

S.T.R.  Stroke Symptoms and Identification During a BBQ, a friend stumbled and took a little fall - she assured everyone that she was fine (they offered to call paramedics) and that she had just tripped over a brick because of her new shoes. They got her cleaned up and got her a new plate of food. While she appeared a bit shaken up, Ingrid went about enjoying herself the rest of the evening. Ingrid's husband called later telling everyone that his wife had been taken to the hospital - (at 6:00 pm, Ingrid passed away.) Thank God for the sense to remember the "3" steps, STR. Sometimes symptoms of a stroke are difficult to identify. Unfortunately, the lack of awareness spells disaster. The stroke victim may suffer severe brain damage when people nearby fail to recognize the symptoms of a stroke. Now doctors say a bystander can recognize a stroke by asking three simple questions:
Another 'sign' of a stroke: Ask the person to 'stick' out their tongue. If the tongue is 'crooked', if it goes to one side or the other, that is also an indication of a stroke. If he or she has trouble with ANY ONE of these tasks, call 911 immediately and describe the symptoms to the dispatcher. |
