I had a stroke july 2010 it was a Friday I was looking forward to an early finish but didn’t make it into work, everything changed I was 50, there were questions what had I done to deserve this, when am I going to get back to, who I was, who I should be, I wont sell the car, il need it for work,
the truth is nothing ever goes back to the way it was I did sell that car
however you get strong over time, your life is at a different pace, you find strength, you enjoy simple things I judge less, ive met people good people, my way of dealing with stress was travel, I got bored of being a victim, I have made a big step recently back into work its taken me a while, I missed the banter more than anything, I feel strong most days ive tried to stop napping it seems to work at the moment, there are still events that wobble me a bit, but I think of the people who haven’t made it to my age-I strive to enjoy the seasons- something i was never bothered about- good luck-we all have different journeys- different experiences- small steps- celebrate every day
