Your Blood Type Affects Your Risk of Early Stroke, Scientists Find

People with one of the type A blood groups are more likely to have a stroke before the age of 60 compared with people with other blood types, research shows.

In 2009, Doug Dearth produced the famout documentary "9000 Needles" about this brothers recovery from a #stroke with the help of #acupuncture in Tianjin, China.

Chickenpox and shingles virus lying dormant in your neurons can reactivate and increase your risk of stroke – new research identified a potential culprit

It was a stroke of luck
That I stroked the cat
As the old clock struck ten.

At the first loud bong
The cat jumped and meowled
Nearly giving me a stroke myself.

The cat bounded out of the room
As the clocked bonged on,
All claws, fangs and fur

And I was left empty lapped
And wondering
What appointment the cat was late for.

The scientists say that the findings could open the door for a safer and more effective stroke treatment.

Here's my friend Charles starting his 13-mile journey home this afternoon, having delivered his friend Len's iMac to me for upgrade.

Charles is a stroke recoverer in his 70s, he wouldn't mind me saying. Cycling has helped him survive and thrive.
