No one has what I have There are 4.8 million survivors
I can't do it Back up and go around the mud
It's not working Try again, don't give up
If you were me you'd understand All of us 4.8 mil. understand
This just gets me mad Channel that anger into recovery.
It's so slow Keep a positive attitude
I'm not as good as my friend Don't compare yourself to others
How? Do
When When it happens
Why Because you're worth it
How do I keep a good attitude? Help others
How do I help other strokers? Do find, ask and encourage
This may be the hardest thing you have ever done in your life and it will take longer than anything else to recover from than you've ever had. Don't give up you are worth it Do not throw out a perfectly good human being, work with your abilities not your disabilities Give neuro plasticity time to work. It does work call to find out.

The hope for stroke organization was established withthe two following factors in mind: That the devastating effects ofstroke cause up to 60% of us to be depressed. I was depressed althoughI did not realize it at the time. I came back from being paralyzed,unable to talk, move or do anything for myself...anything! I spent afull year in Hospitals and Nursing Homes and when I got out I couldmove only one hand slightly. Today I'm fully functional... The other isthe biological fact that Neuro-Plasticity cantake a long time but it does work.. We are tough on stroke and want tohelp you beat it back. Make that call, it may be the best thing you'veever done. If you have attained recovery and would like to help othersto do the same, volunteer... the pay is great if you like that feelingof watching some one else recover and you know that you've had a partin it. ___________________________________________________________________________________ OUR MISSION STATEMENT
