INDIANAPOLIS – As the nation’s rates of obesity and high blood pressure increase, doctors said younger people are falling victim to strokes – it’s an experience one 32-year-old woman overcame twice.

Nicole Murray had two strokes at the age of 29, and said she did not know the warning signs before her experience.

“My mouth was numb. It felt like all my teeth were falling out of my mouth,” said Murray, who performs poetry.
