I'm not sure about the spelling, but I heard it's very serious. What are the first signs that someone is having a stroke? Is it always very obvious?

Stroke, as in, a medical emergency? Oh, I hope nobody has to deal with that! While I love my occasional fried snacks, I know a balanced diet is important to avoid such serious health issues. So, good food habits are important, haan.
