DARO,SARAWAK,MALAYSIA: Monday;
The residents of this little town is once again wondering why do the young suffer stroke too?
This is a fatal blow even to a young man who seems to be very healthy. Just about two weeks ago, an officer with the State’s Fisheries Department by the name of Sharul, suffered a stroke while recuperating from measles in a district hospital.
Salim was an undergraduate at our local university and he had another year to finish his study. Just last week , he too, suffered from stroke in his sleep. He was just another healthy young man before that.
Yet they are not the only casualties. The trend seemed to be on the rise. What is it that causes stroke? This question was answered by the director of a district hospital right here in Daro.
Lifestyle, diet, and general health is the area that should be taken into account, says Dr Lim. As for these young people careful studies should be conducted to know the real cause.
Just as frightening is the occurence of this phenomenon, the number of patient recuperating almost to his former health is puzzling too. Take the case of a primary school assistant by the name of Jaya. He was brought down by stroke while sleeping. The next morning he was quickly brought to the Sarikei Divisional Hospital. He was warded for about two weeks. Not long after that his colleagues and friends were both happy and puzzled when they found out that he had recovered almost one hundred percent.
He is now back at his work. Lucky man. Perhaps, like the experts says, lifestyle and diet is of utmost importance.
