sypport group?save me!
,I just got back from the support groupin my area.It was not what I expected.The group is very unorganized and super informal.The acoustics in the room were terrible.Several of us have hearing problems and it was impossible..Everyone talks at once.As a new perso, They sared me because one lady decided to tell me that.If I don't have movement in a part within the first 3 months forget it,.It won't come back.....from her experience.She was 10 years pos-stroke and can not move her arm still.Then some of the other people tried to make up for it by saying they did not believe that yada,yad,ayada Still,It left me shell shocked.There was a person who had had a stroke at 17years old (30 years ago).The group has been on the westIsland for 20 years and no one knows about them.Crazy.They start with simple stretches and leg movements,which was goodbut I was not impressed at the rest.I will probably go back because I have no where else but It did not give me a positive feelingI wish I could figure out how to do chat on this site without having to turn off my firewall I really need you guys!!
