I had so much fun today at the "Go Red for Women" event in Green Bay! Kristen Steede from Season 7 The Biggest Loser was the speaker for the event and she was very inspirational. My mother-in-law had a stroke a few years ago and had she known the symptoms of a stroke it very possibly could of been avoided. Having the stroke really affected the quality of life she now lives. All of us need to know the symptoms of a stroke because it could save someone. Thank you to all of the staff and volunteers at Go Red Wisconsin you are making a difference.
