I just suffered my first stroke at 48 years old! Hardest thing I’ve ever gone through. Completely paralysed on my left side!

My mom had one when the ambulance came they asked me what I think was the problem.. I said I don’t know I think maybe a heart attack .. we had several coworkers that had a heart attack so we my mom and I thought maybe a heart attack so then she took three baby aspirin... that’s what I told them ... later when we reached the hospital the ambulance and me behind them .. the doctors at the hospital told he .. your mom had a stroke with a brain hemorrhage.. My mom was 64 at the time of the stroke she had been going to her doctors for a check-up and all's well..this came out of nowhere...so how can a family member know its a stroke so we can let the so called professional know that our love ones need the shot
