KILLER STATEMENTS                        ANSWERS


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. (516) 804 8495

A WEB SITE FOR AVM.,  ANEURYSM AND STROKE SURVIVORS AND THEIR CARE GIVERS

Want help taking a whack at stroke? We'll help you get your life back. This is done on a voluntary basis, we do not charge anything, it is for free and we would love to help you return to a higher level of functionality as so many of us have.  We are also looking for individuals that have attained recovery to join us in this unique effort and volunteer in helping others do the same on a world wide basis!

The hope for stroke organization was established with the two following factors in mind: That the devastating effects of stroke cause up to 60% of us to be depressed.  I was depressed although I 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 a full year in Hospitals and Nursing Homes and when I got out I could move only one hand slightly. Today I'm fully functional... The other is the biological fact that Neuro-Plasticity can take a long time but it does work.. We are tough on stroke and want to help you beat it back. Make that call, it may be the best thing you've ever done. If you have attained recovery and would like to help others to do the same, volunteer...  the pay is great if you like that feeling of watching  some one else recover and you know that you've had a part in it.
