I'm taking part in the Stride for Stroke challenge!

I joined #TeamStroke for Stride for Stroke. I will be taking one step for each of the 1.3 million stroke survivors in the UK. The 1.3 million steps challenge works out at 10,000 steps a day for 130 days.

Stroke Association is here to support people to rebuild their lives after stroke. We believe everyone deserves to live the best life they can after stroke, so we work with the stroke community to make sure people affected by stroke get the very best care and support. We rely on your support to provide vital services, campaign for better stroke care and fund research into preventative and rehabilitative treatments.

My Dad

Sunday 7th Jan
My Dad suffered a huge stroke that left him paralysed on his left side, in a wheelchair and had to be hoisted to the toilet. This man was a 6ft 2" policeman who was very proud and loved his family and friends unconditionally and when it came to the point we, his family, especially my Mam were bathing him and sorry to say this even wiping his bim was so degrading for him! Despite our love, care & even humour he told us often he didn't want to be here anymore...and who could blame him! I miss him so much. So.....let's do this!!!!
