It can happen at any second. That moment when your brain doesn’t have enough oxygen and cells begin to slowly die.  It’s called a stroke.  As people get older the chances of getting a stroke increase dramatically. But new research shows older people are not the only ones at risk.  One out of every four strokes happens to someone under the age of 65. Every 40 seconds someone has a stroke in the United States.
