When Morgan Hentemann welcomed her fifth child at age 33, having a stroke a month later was not in the plans. But as discussed in the recent Stroke Awareness Month, anyone can become a stroke victim at any time. What's important is recognizing the symptoms early and seeking care immediately.
Thanks to the intuition and quick-thinking of her husband, Stephen, Morgan overcame a .001 percent chance of survival and is on her way to a recovery that once seemed impossible.
Stephen credits Morgan's inspiring determination and the first-class care of our teams in Lansing and Ann Arbor for this remarkable story of defying the odds.
