Guys, anyone of your NOK or relative or closed friend or loved ones who has undergone or is going through STROKE?
Near my neighborhood, a coffeeshop frequented by a group of old woods and there is one of them, look very strong and alert for his age, like 65 like that..
Then one fine day, I was at the Coffeeshop and saw that he is on those type of handicapped battery powered PMD
It seems he cannot walk well, looking like he suffered from a stroke
So sudden
Is suffering a stroke a quick death sentence usually or end up a long life sentence instead?

Depends on severity. My father got stroke but recovered. Does not seem to have much effect on him. Stroke didn't kill him but cancer did.

It is mainly due to bad eating habits and no exercises.
Irregular rest.
Chronic disease.

Was cancer expected? When discovered? Spent a lot of money to cure or too late to do anything?
Did he accept it before he went?

A second Stoke is very likely and will definitely cause some serious damage.

Singapore Healthcare really does not seriously take care of stroke patients, only when they are hospitalised but once out of hospital, the rehab care is lack focus and money-face
