Doreen, my strokes began almost exactly the same day that yours did. Because my strokes left me largely unimpared physically, it took me a long time to face that I was not, infact, fine. When I began to face the fact that I needed help, I looked and found Strokenet. I haven't been here very long, but everytime I log on, it helps me a great deal.
The people here have all be fantastic; I have found that they can help when I think no one can.
All the best,
Kim
