it rises within my heart
this deep fear scares me
allowing me to fall apart
my blood runs cold
as I begin to fold
the death of my soul
I cannot revile
my tears weep out
no one can hear me shout
I cannot hide
I need desperately to confide
grips me with frustration
anger and with no communication
this shadow of fear
the secret that will ever be heard
it will remain within me
as I look into the mirror and see
my reflection of myself that I fear

Heart Attack in the Brain
Like a heart attack in the brain
A stroke happens when parts of the brain are deprived of oxygen resulting in the destruction of the brain cells vital for speech, movement. Thought, and the processes that keep us alive. About 80 percent of strokes are caused by a clot blocking a blood vessel in the brain-an ischemic stroke. The rest are the result of broken blood vessels and uncontrolled bleeding- a hemorrhagic stroke.
As estrogen levels drop at menopause, women lose their protection against stroke. Its important to pay attention to your odds for a stroke significantly. Your first step is to watch for these five warning signs of a female stroke risk.
