Blood clots are the biggest causes of stroke. As leading researchers in the world for heart disease and stroke, the foundation in Ontario needs celebrity. They don't yet have the celebrity endorsement needed to give the public the push to pay attention to Canada's number 1 killer of women. It is not cancer, it is not breast cancer, it is definitely heart disease and stroke-related complications. The statistics are horrible.
Stroke knows no age.
It is so sad to read that Brian's mother was winning her battle with cancer, and lost it to a form of stroke. My heart goes out to him . . . I know only too well the heartache and suffering . . . As this terrible anniversary approaches, may he know that there are many who are thinking of him, and saying our silent prayers. I can say that I had the pleasure once of meeting his very proud mom in Orillia, while watching Brian skate.
