Perry, who starred in"Beverly Hills 90210" and"Riverdale," died Monday. He was 52."Although stroke often affects older individuals, it is not only a disease of the elderly," said Mitchell S. V. Elkind, chair of the American Stroke Association Advisory Committee."There is evidence that stroke rates among young people are increasing in the United States and this requires additional research.

When I was at my junior prom with my ex boyfriend he had a stroke. He was 17 years old. He is still alive but it paralyzed his right side and he had to learn how to walk/talk again, he will never be the same. I feel for Luke's family. 3

I will forever miss you, Luke Perry.

RIP brother your where a good actor

The poor guy was forced to watch CNN for 15 minutes while waiting at the airport. More than enough time to give anyone with an IQ above room temperature a stroke.

Don’t be luke is all i need to know.

i still can't not believe he gones.

Hey CNN, way to fuel my rampant hypochondria. 😁

One of my neighbors was just 30 years old when he had a heart attack and unfortunately he died

Nunca es muy pronto para un chekeo general y prevenir desenlaces fatales.

I had a stroke at 49.

He was such a good man rip

CNN gives me high blood pressure. Avoid CNN.

And don’t EVER visit a chiropractor.

My sister had one and eventually passed. She was 29.

So you just now realized this?

May he rest in peace!

I'm 52 tomorrow! 'It makes you think! Live every day Like it's your last. Rip luke

Do typos indicate a stroke?

An excerpt of the report 👇🏼 The American Heart Association recommends using the acronym F.A.S.T. to remember how to catch the warning signs of a stroke: Face is drooping. Arms are weak. Speech difficulty. Time to call 911.

Eli5: don’t smoke cigs, strokes are totes unpredictable, but not smoking helps

We are all on are way out. Act accordingly

Salve Salve Bom dia ,Acabei de assistir o Filme Perola Negra RedeGlobo gshow com a participação do Mr. Luke Perry 🤔😉

I've lost two friends to strokes last year. They were both in this thirties. Another friend survived one in his late twenties. Strokes can happen at any time.

Stay off the drugs. It’ll lower your risk of a stroke at 52.

I had my first stroke at age 42 due to a rare blood clotting disorder. Age is not the determining factor for strokes.

Im having a stroke now, or two..

😓

I hope to still be stoking when i great old.
