Tomorrow is the anniversary, but it was just before 11, Rome time, on Friday - today - that I had a massive stroke.
Life never was, or will be, the same again, but adapting to change has brought as much reward as challenge.
What a year it’s been! mol.im/a/15527637

"Emotionally, the experience was overwhelming. As someone used to being in control, supporting others, and leading in my profession, I suddenly found myself in a very different position — uncertain, vulnerable, and reliant on others."

#SurvivorStory
A stroke is never an individual event, it ripples through an entire network of relationships, each person carrying their own version of fear, adjustment, and uncertainty. #lifeafterstroke

"Many people are surprised when I tell them I have had a stroke. They often say they would never have known. In many ways, it is an invisible condition. But there are moments when it helps to explain it, particularly if something doesn’t quite go to plan."
