Stroke

I don't like to be morbid, but I do think about the end of life more as I get older. If you're curious about the leading causes of death in Missouri, I can warn you that #1 can take your life instantly.

Reba McEntire brother, Pake McEntire, is recovering from a stroke, and the 60-year-old is keeping her fans in the know about his progress.

Reports have been mixed about Randy Travis's recovery after he suffered a stroke last summer. Recent reports say that the singer is no longer able to speak.

Randy Travis stepped out in public -- a rarity since his 2013 stroke -- for his friend Dolly Parton's concert.

My mother used to tell me that it was better to be safe than sorry, and that something in prevention was worth a pound of cure. That's what the Life Line Screenings and Our Savior Lutheran Church want to tell you, too!

Randy Travis put his cowboy boots on and moved into the public eye for the first time since a stroke last summer. A photo shared by a fellow country singer is another positive sign for fans of the country legend.

When I was a kid, I pretty much just did kid stuff.  I tried to eat candy, I played in the yard, and I didn't have to do anything that you'd qualify as "responsible." Heck, even now I pretty much still eat candy and goof around on the Nintendo.  And then I hear stories like this one, and I'm thinking, "Wow.  This person has done more in one day that I did all year!"

As fans and onlookers anxiously await news about Randy Travis' health, fellow country music stars have been steadfast in showing their support of the iconic singer.
