Are we having more strokes?

Posted by dreinke, 14 April 2012 · 312 views

I'll be provocative here. :Rant-On:
ARE we having more strokes? WILL they have devastating consequences? These do not overly worry the placidly ensconced. The solution is the responsibility of medical world. YOU do more work. YOU cater to my indifference and confusion. YOU make it easy for me. It's YOUR problem, not mine.
This was paraphrased from Tom Toles' comment on saving the environment copied below:
ARE we changing the climate? WILL it have devastating consequences? These do not overly worry the placidly ensconced. The environment is the responsibility of "environmentalists". YOU do more work. YOU cater to my indifference and confusion. YOU make it easy for me. It's YOUR planet, not mine. --Tom Toles\

To bluntly paraphrase: Get off your butts and take some responsibility for the stroke solution.
No one is doing anything, especially our stroke associations. :growl: :crazysmile: :Rant-Off:

It sure does seem like people are having more strokes to me but then again maybe it is the same rate as when I had one 8 years ago. The trend has changed from "Old Folks" to everybody young and old alike. I think that's what prompted us to have over and under 45 years categories!
