I want my life back!!!!!!!!!
By Peter V Cornelis  Getting your life back is hardly a walk through the rose garden, for many it will be a frustrating and at times, an emotional ride. But do try your hardest, every day. Focus on the things that you need to do. Stroke recovery is something that ultimately relies on the person recovering and their physiology. For me, there was no other option, but, to try my hardest. This is a journey, that is so different from everything else we have experienced in life. Even after open heart surgery, recuperation time is much quicker. Nobody is prepared for the length of time recuperation may take. We have never been through anything like this before.  Take all your frustration, anger and doubt and change it to dedication, determination and positive thoughts. Picture yourself being better in the future.
