A recent reminder highlights the importance of recognizing stroke symptoms to save lives. Doctors suggest using the “STR” test to spot a stroke: 1. **S** – Ask the person to smile or laugh. 2. **T** – Have them speak a coherent sentence. 3. **R** – Ask them to raise both arms. If any of these tasks are difficult, call 911 immediately. Additionally, check if the person’s tongue is crooked or leaning to one side, as this can also indicate a stroke. Sharing this simple information could help save lives
