A very\u00a0big thank you to Nurse Karen Fitzgerald (mother of Alex) for informing us all about her job at Mercy University Hospital in Cork. Nurse Karen looks after stroke patients. What is a stroke? A stroke is where some of your brain cells stop working. She told us about the signs to look out for. She explained\u00a0what F.A.S.T means. (Face, Arms, Speech, Time). She told us to be healthy and never to smoke. We watched a\u00a0great video that explained all about Stroke clues in a child friendly way, this is an American video so the only difference is the phone number;\u00a0it \u00a0is 999 in Ireland.<\/p>\n
