Stocking up on Meds

[MaryN]

Sorry to hear about your problems, and I hope that your family member is recovering. Sadly, there is no real way to forecast such illnesses, but a good plan to include exercise and a healthy diet should go some way to help keep your relative on the road to health. It has been suggested that the Western diet does cause problems, so perhaps doing a bit of research into an alternative diet might help. I have read that the Mediterranean diet can help with heart and vascular problems, and also with the diabetes that often seems to go alongside the risk of a stroke.

In any event, hope things work out for you.
