Do Strokes cause mental changes?

   It has long been believed that people who have even minor strokes often behave much differently afterward,
and doctors now seem to think it is true.

  For instance a Brazilian man who had a stroke could not stop spending money on anyone who would ask him, often causing his family financial hardships.

   Others have reported depression associated with a person who has had a stroke. It now turns out that there is more evidence of mental problems associated with stroke victims. Too often, however, they are not given the proper mental treatment.
