Lost for words…

Hi Matt

I suppose I have but I’m also extremely lucky too, understanding what could have been with my stroke / craniotomy makes me feel blessed. Looking back is far to easy and you can get lost in what was and could have been but I believe in looking forward, the outcome as far more potential.

Cheers Paul

Hi Matt - keep going and adapt to what you can go. I’m 18 months post stroke but can now enjoy a good quality of life. I enjoy the support of my family and especially grandsons aged 7 4 and 9 months. They know grandpa walks with a stick and a dodgy voice but he buys ice creams so they dont mind

Hiya Bob, I have no grandchildren yet, and my 3 sons are still at home - eldest is a home bird even with his other half, the middle one is the intelligent one but he’s a dreamer and would rather rap than work. And my young one is off the chart expert in several subjects but on the scale and still going to uni.

But, they all are still adjusting to me after 3 years post-stroke - they don’t really understand the internal, not pain but, the process of my afflictions and “getting better”. But the real pain is fortifying mum and her afflictions (rheumatism arthritis and peri-menopause) and don’t worry about me.

My wife is a rockstar, happy and smiley on the surface, deep pain underneath.
