Surprising that small things can mean so much.
One of my aims since having my stroke has been to walk about 400m around our close and windmill on my own. Well, today I did the "circuit" twice on my own without even grounding my stick.
The next aim is to walk further, such as to the Bank or Post Office on my own later this month.
A year ago I had no idea this (stroke) bombshell was going to hit me. In many ways I am lucky. With hard work and determination I have every hope of a (near) full recovery given time. I have just got to continue with exercises and continue to walk as much as I can. Already I am feeling a lot better than I was some months ago. I have to hope that I continue to improve.
My main issues remain balance when walking and a slight discomfort inside . Both are better than they were. I still feel clumsy doing things too. Speech and swallow also need to be improved.
