A Sinn Féin MLA has urged those who think they may be suffering a stroke to get medical attention straight away - something she herself didn't do. Michaela Boyle had a mini-stroke in January but put off going to hospital for a number of hours. The 49-year-old has since made a full recovery but wants to warn others that when it comes to having a stroke, there's no time to waste.
