irony

Isn't ironic the very thing that fuels the brain a every control system in the brain is working properly can actually cause damage? When an artery bursts the bleeding kills brain cells. The area those brain cells are responsible is compromised. Bleeding can also occur in between the layers of tissues that cover the brain(ie subarachnoid hemorrhage). You usually see this in patients who have fallen and hit their head. It's exacerbated when they have hypertension.
The human body is a mystery itself, and yet many of us take it for granted on a daily basis.
