Kia ora,
Did you know in New Zealand about 9,000 people each year have a stroke. Some 2,000 die from a stroke; about another 2,000 are left severely incapacitated, about another 2,000 have considerable disability and the rest have some disability or nearly recover. Nobody recovers completely.

Did you know in New Zealand about 9,000 people each year have a stroke. Some 2,000 die from a stroke; about another 2,000 are left severely incapacitated, about another 2,000 have considerable disability and the rest have some disability or nearly recover. Nobody recovers completely.
It is estimated that some 50% of strokes can be avoided with life style changes. Interested to find out what you can do to have a good chance to avoid a stroke??
Our next meeting of the Western Suburbs Stroke Survivors will be on Tuesday 11th July at 10.30am at Huntleigh Home, 221 Karori Road.
