Thank you to everyone who came out to the Bloom & Brew community Breakfast!
The Bloom and Brew breakfast included information about recognizing stroke with the BEFAST acronym, and a speech from Stroke Life Center's co-founder, Cindy Roshon. This video includes a short clip about her experience with stroke recovery and aphasia.
Thank you to everyone who made this possible, especially our partner for this event, CarePatrol , who provided CEUs for some professionals attending the event.

Eyes: sudden changes in vision, including blurriness or double vision
Face: one side of the face drooping or numb
Arms: one arm weak or numb
Speech: Slurred or difficult to understand
