A nice thing just happened 🙂

Life is generally good for me post-stroke. I’ve kept up with my physio (three or for time a week) that i started with the OT therapists when i had my stroke in may '21, also regular 10 minute stretching yoga. Left side is affected but only in so far as lots of muscle tension sometimes restricting movement.

A couple of months back i started going to a pilates class to keep on top of and/or improve my overall mobility, which was already pretty good. Just got home from tonights session and…

For the first time in four plus years since my cerebellar stroke, there was an exercise that was actually EASIER on my left side than the right - it has always been more difficult on the left.

I’ll take that as a little win. Keeping up with stuff long term does have make a difference :+1:

Well done, - you deserve it :check_mark: :glowing_star:

:grinning:

Yay - i bet that felt good. Maybe some other things will start getting easier on your left side too. It just shows that all the effort is worthwhile even if it takes a few years. :clap::clap::clap::clap:
