From people who came through it

  • “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.”

  • “When 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.”

  • “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.”

  • “Hi, you. I was in the same place nearly four years ago. The worst part was the occupational therapist at home. Last weekend I went to a friend's birthday and stayed till the end. You get yourself back in pieces.”
