A heartfelt thank you to the City of Chelsea, Mayor Cody Sumners, and the City Council for proclaiming May 2026 as Stroke Awareness Month.

🩺 Stroke Awareness Month 🩺
At the May 19th City Council Meeting, Mayor Cody Sumners proclaimed May 2026 as Stroke Awareness Month in the City of Chelsea, recognizing the importance of stroke education, prevention, and support for survivors and their families.
We were honored to present this proclamation to Brandon Matthews, who accepted it on behalf of Sanchez Tannehill. Sanchez suffered a stroke at just six weeks old and continues to do well today. Through his organization, God Did It Ministries, he helps raise awareness about strokes, shares his story, and encourages others through advocacy and outreach.
Stroke awareness saves lives. Recognizing the warning signs and seeking immediate medical attention can make a significant difference in outcomes and recovery. Education and prevention remain important tools in reducing the impact of stroke on individuals and families.
We appreciate Brandon, Sanchez, and all those who work to raise awareness, support survivors, and educate our communities about stroke prevention and recovery.
