Stroke can affect people of any age. It can happen to anyone, at any time, and anywhere. “A Stroke happens either when the blood supply to part of your brain is cut off because of a blood clot, or because a brain artery ruptures and leads to a haemorrhage.” But strokes happen for different reasons in children and adults. Strokes in children are often associated with existing conditions mostly commonly, congenital heart disease, sickle cell disease, and infectious diseases.
