  • Summary

  • In this episode, Gina and Don (Don has just come off of a stroke him self) leads us through a deep dive into the world of strokes, exploring the different types—ischemic, hemorrhagic, and transient ischemic attacks (TIAs). Strokes don’t come in just one form, and understanding the variations can be life-saving.

    We start by breaking down ischemic strokes, the most common type, which occurs when a blood clot blocks an artery in the brain, cutting off vital oxygen. Next, we’ll explore hemorrhagic strokes, caused by bleeding in or around the brain, often linked to high blood pressure or aneurysms. Finally, we’ll discuss transient ischemic attacks, or “mini-strokes,” which, while brief, serve as urgent warnings for potentially larger strokes.

    Join us for an eye-opening look into strokes, from understanding the science to uncovering the resilience needed to face these life-altering moments head-on.
