Self-care after a #stroke looks different for all survivors. One focus of Stroke Onward is to assist #survivors in establishing a way to care for their mental health. Physical recovery is essential - but so is the Emotional Journey.

How well you recover from a stroke depends on a variety of reasons. These include the amount of damage to your brain cells and where in the brain the stroke took place. Rehabilitation can start 24 hours after a stroke. To read more about treatment, visit: bit.ly/3lja6MX

My life is like two sides of the same coin. One side is shiny and reflects my gratitude. The other is dull and darkened by my grief of all I have lost. Daily I make the choice to face the world - shiny side up! #life #Grateful #PositiveEnergy #stroke

Our state uniiversity hospitals in disgraceful state of repair, unsuitable for modern healthcare & treatment of stroke or treatment of older people Hopefully some of 13 billion tax windfall will be used to modernise our hospitals & give patients & staff decent environments .
