The mission of Tedy's Team is to raise awareness for stroke and heart disease while supporting survivors on their journey, giving them a means for a comeback!
Tedy's Team was originally founded in 2005, when Tedy Bruschi, former linebacker for the New England Patriots suffered a stroke shortly after winning his 3rd Super Bowl and just days after returning from his first Pro Bowl. to learn more about who we are, please see our website, www.tedysteam.org.
The warning signs of stroke, which are best remembered by using the acronym BE FAST, are:
Balance Difficulties
Eyesight Changes
Face Drooping
Arm Weakness
Speech Difficulties - and if you notice any of those warning signs, it's...
TIME TO CALL 9-1-1.
BE FAST is an acronym to help you quickly recognize common signs of a stroke and to take any necessary action by calling for emergency medical services. Other symptoms may include sudden and severe unexplained headache or migraine with no obvious cause, and confusion or trouble understanding things they would normally know.

• Chest pain and discomfort
• Lightheadedness, nausea or vomiting
