Oklahoma City Council and Mayor Proclaim Stroke Month

 

On Tuesday, May 27th, Oklahoma City Mayor, Mick Cornett, presented a proclamation from the City of Oklahoma City recognizing May as “American Stroke Month.” Prior to the presentation of the proclamation, stroke survivors and AHA staff briefly met with Mayor Cornett to take a group photo and discuss the importance of recognizing Stroke Month.

After Mayor Cornett had presented the proclamation, each stroke survivor introduced themselves and shared their story as a stroke survivor. Survivor A. Jaye Johnson even announced that the previous Saturday marked the one year anniversary since his stroke, and that since then he has lost over 100 pounds!
