My Mission is not to offer medical advice, nor to sell you medical equipment My mission is to connect other stroke survivors and caregivers so we may all share information, treatments used, words of wisdom, helpful hints and experiences. From this maybe someone else will benefit from this information. This is a result of my own personal frustration with the health care industry, insurance industry, and anyone connected with the care and recovery of a stroke patient. After the Stroke, I have had to find out so much on my own that it has been an exhausting an arduous journey. But the result is a positive one, and there is Life After the Stroke! |

" You're not
fighting in a ring. There is no bell telling you when to start and stop, and
the opponent in the other corner is not a guy with gloves on. It's you. And
perhaps you're the scariest opponent of all. You know all of your
weaknesses; know how to lose. Every time you get knocked down, you both lose
and win, and the only person who cares whether you get up or not half wants
you to stay down. But maybe this is easier than most fights. It's going to
get easier, not harder, the more time that passes. It's between what you
want and what you want more. You know you'll have setbacks, but it's your
choice what happens next. Choose to fight!"
