Beliefs and personalities didn’t matter to Nancy. Taking care of me mattered to her.

The point is that even though I am in the midst of my final decline, I’m still alive and can enjoy as much of life as possible – and there’s a lot of it to enjoy.

Normal life isn’t really possible, but as long as I keep it in front of me and the stroke in the rear-view mirror, life will be all good.

The problem was I did not have the strength in the right leg I needed to walk.

This blog recounts my experiences with doctors an therapists following the stroke. They aren’t as knowledgeable as you might think or hope, and it pays for the patient to know their limitations.
