Brenda

“I live an active lifestyle and I love riding horses with my husband. It was another normal work day, August 31, 2009, and I had a stroke. I’m 44 years old and I had a stroke! I recognized the warning signs and got to the hospital quickly. The team at Our Lady of the Lake responded quickly and gave me the treatment I needed. Within hours, I was able to move my arm and leg again and my speech was restored. If it can happen to me, it can happen to anyone. Click see my story.”
