From people who came through it
“I've been there. For me it was a few years back. Fatigue after twenty minutes of anything. That was my life. This morning I sang in the car. It changes. It really does. Sending love.”
Sello N. · been through stroke recovery“It's hard. The first years are the worst. You'll learn new ways to do things. Like Velcro instead of buttons. And you'll find people who help. Even if it's just a neighbor who sits with him for an hour. Don't be afraid to ask. And look after yourself. Sleep when you can. Eat proper meals. Cry if you need to. It's not weak. It's human. Derek still cries at adverts. I just hold his hand. That's enough.”
Brooke M. · been through stroke recovery“If you've just found this place, I was where you are in 2022. Back then it was relearning to walk with a frame. Last month I had people round for dinner. The bad days get further apart. From someone who gets it.”
terrellwren22 · been through stroke recovery“Please be gentle with yourself. I wasn't, and it made everythig harder. Someone told me to do one small thing a day so some days it's just a shower. And talk to someone, even if it's just in here.”
