Hope your feeling better and improving as time passes.

 

I also have had two strokes. The first one i didnt even realize. I was working 10-12hr day most of the year. I had no clue and just thuoght i was worn down from workin 6days week. This went on for at least a year. Headed to work one morning,i go to a certain point and coulnt remember witch way to turn. I drive the same way for 16yrs. That was when i had stroke 2.

 

The first stroke was much worse than the last. I only have 40 percent strenght on the right side, my memorys not well,and when i walk i still drift to the right. Im not able to take care of bills etc because of my thought process. My job of 16yr let me go because if it. I was put on disablty an unable to work acording to them.it really sucks,i have worked a job since i was 13 if i wastin school.

 

Keep on with theropy at home,and take one day ay a time. You dont really have a choice when you can only do so much. ONE DAY AT A TIME.
