Hi Bob3,
Great to hear from you - thank you.
Sorry to hear that following your discharge from hospital, the aftercare was “patchy”. I was very fortunate I guess.
I was offered a gym membership to help with ongoing fitness once the stroke team finished the home visits at the 6 week point. I turned it down as I much prefer getting out and about with family/friends. Plus that fact, I’ve see the inside of gym’s more times than I can remember post my forces career 
I hope that when I get to the 2 year point post stroke, using a walking stick is the only aid I will be needing then 
Take are and all the best - Gary
