From people who came through it

  • โ€œWhen my wife had her stroke, I thought I had to fix everything. I could not. The first month was chaos. I did not know about occupational therapists or fatigue or any of it. So here is what I know now. Progress is slow. It looks like folding a towel. Celebrate it. Rest when you can. Ask for help even if you are stubborn. And look after yourself. I did not, and now I am paying for it. You cannot pour from an empty cup. I hate that saying. But it is true.โ€

  • โ€œI'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.โ€

    Sello N. ยท been through stroke recovery
  • โ€œI was in the same place this time last year. Speech therapy twice a week, every single day. Today I went for a walk and didn't cry once. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do. Hang on.โ€

    Almaz No ยท been through stroke recovery
  • โ€œPlease 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.โ€
