Drinking Andd Smoking After a Stroke - Please Help Me Posted: 05-26-07 20:22pm
my mom had a little stroke a few days ago
but she is out of the hospital now. she is
at my aunts hose in another state. my mom
is an alcoholic and i know my aunt will
let her drink and smoke cigarettes. my
aunt and i have been fighting for years
about her drinking. my aunt admits she is
an alcoholic but does nothing. what are
the side effects from drinking and smoking
after a minor stroke? i am really scared.
Smoking is one of the major factors for
developing cardio-vascular (angina
pectoris, heart attack) and
cerebro-vascular disorders (TIA, stroke).
Alcohol is not accused for promoting
atherosclerosis (disease that damages
heart's and brain's blood vessels) but has
direct negative impact on many organs
including heart muscle and brain.
Can YOU take care of your mother instead
of arguing with your ant?
