98 Bowery: 1969-89. View From The Top Floor. Telling stories with pictures and a few carefully chosen words is what I enjoy doing best. Over the years I have been lucky to create many visual narratives during a varied career as an artist, journalist, curator, art historian and publisher.
Ischemic stroke is a type of stroke where blood vessels to the brain are blocked by plaques that either formed in those vessels or moved from a different body part and traveled to the brain vessels to block them, cutting off the blood supply.
An ischemic stroke occurs when a blood clot blocks a blood vessel, preventing blood and oxygen from getting to a part of the brain. There are two ways that this can happen. When a clot forms somewhere else in your body and gets lodged in a brain blood vessel, it is called an embolic stroke.
