I am coming out of the anger and bitterness that had such a tight grip on me. Bitterness at my body for betraying me, anger at myself for not getting to the hospital sooner. I feel the beginning of hope. :laughbounce:
It is a great feeling. It isn't related to my ability to recover. I think it is from my psychological growth and review of my situation. My birthday was yesterday. My first birthday since the stroke that I am happy that I am alive. My first birthday as a Dr. :yukyukyuk: and I am beginning to believe that I deserve the degree.
I am hopeful that my life will have a purpose.
There is no possible way that I could have made it as far as I have without Bob :hug: I hope to become half of the person he is. Honest, full of integrity, caring, selfless, truly the man of my dreams (Bob, I know you are reading this - I will still get irritated at you at times, just to warn you! )
There is hope and life after stroke. You couldn't have convinced me of this just months ago :nuhuh: As one of the biggest skeptics, I am here to say otherwise! :cheer:
