Sinopsis

The stroke I am referring to in this book is a CVA (Cerebrovascular Accident). In my case, it was a blockage in the central lobe with a banging headache, dizziness and then the whole left side losing feeling. Not nice! I realised this was life threatening when my consultant turned to my husband and said, &ldquo,We need to act quickly, time is not on her side.&rdquo, My husband&rsquo,s response was, &ldquo,Don&rsquo,t stand there, get on with it!&rdquo, If he hadn&rsquo,t, my life now would be very different.My concentration levels were not good at first. I knew I needed to keep my brain active: I did not want to lose my mind, memory etc. However, with the help, love and support of others (and two years on), I can now share my thoughts on this experience. Who knows? It may help others to cope.Through this book, I am going to share my deepest darkest days, and explain to you why I feel lucky.
