Educating about strokes...
I just found that typing hurts my hand alot less than writing, I've been trying to keep a journel...I needed to get a few things off my chest but just remember how to use this blog. It is now 1am and I am tired but I never seem to sleep. Since the stroke I am less active and I don't fall asleep just stay fatigued. I look in the mirror and don't even notice myself sometimes. I'm only 35 but I feel so much older with the constant aches I experience. Everything hurts sometimes. I am physically able to perform with minimal weakness so I know I am blessed, but this stroke has changed my life. I want to do something to tell the world that this can happen to them but I don't know where to start.
I find myself telling my story of having a stroke to anyone who will listen, but I don't think know one really cares. I am not looking for a pity party at all I just want people to know this can happen to them. I wonder if that sounds crazy considering you would never have known I had a stroke before considering I have no physical deficiets :blah_blah:
I know this blog is about nothing important but I have so much in my head that I want to let out. So if anyone ever take the time to read this suggestions on educating others would be great. I work in the medical field and could use a little guidance. I think that would help my recovery and others in seeing that they too could have a stroke and you don't have to look a certain way, be a certain color, or age. Being a nurse would have never prepared me for what happened.
