A stroke is a brain injury that occurs when the flow of fresh, oxygen-filled blood from the heart and lungs to the brain is interrupted by a blockage or rupture. This starves the brain of its energy source and causes nerve cells to die, which then results in a loss of function in the areas controlled by the affected part of the brain.
Strokes and their effects can be frightening, but Sheltering Arms provides you with an environment of knowledge and caring. It helps to remember that people usually have at least some spontaneous recovery or natural healing after a stroke and often recover further with rehabilitation.
