Help for stroke recovery in New Zealand
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“If you're scared right now, I get it. Not that long ago, about a year, that was me. I remember when he cries now at adverts, which he never did, like it was yesterday. Now I sleep most nights. It's slow, but it does come back. Keep going, even slowly.”
wrenpaper49 · been through stroke recovery“Reading this late at night? I've been there. I've been there. For me it was a few years back. It was fatigue after twenty minutes of anything and I couldn't see past it. Today I made breakfast, went to work and laughed at something. It doesn't stay this heavy. Be gentle with yourself.”
Jez R · been through stroke recovery“If you've just found this place, in 2022 I was exactly where you are. The occupational therapist at home. That was my life. These days I mostly feel like me. You get yourself back in pieces. Hang on.”
