What's the Difference Between a Heart Attack and a Stroke?

Whenever I speak to lay audiences about CPR or heart attacks, there's almost always someone in the crowd who thinks heart attack and stroke are just two different terms for the same thing. They're not. Answer: Heart attack refers to damage to the muscle of the heart, usually from a lack of blood flow.

Most of the time, a blood clot forms in one of the arteries that supplies the heart muscle with blood, blocking the flow of blood. As the heart muscle starves, it begins to die, causing chest pain and other heart attack symptoms. A stroke is a similar blockage in an artery that supplies blood to the brain.

When a clot forms in one of those arteries and stops blood flow, a section of the brain begins to die.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
