Stroke: the loss and recovery of familiarity | Mark Ware | TEDxFulbrightGlasgow

I had very similar experiences to this during my recovery for cardiac arrest. I'm thankful to have survived the coma, to have gotten off a ventilator learning how to walk and relearning life! Stay blessed and keep up the motivation!

❤️ My 42 yr old spouse had 2 cva strokes from Covid last fall. He’s truly a miracle. Although his whole body took massive hits, some permanent, he’s still making progress. Time will tell what the new normal will be for him. Thank you for your talk! ❤️

keep working hard. push the therapy everyday. i had a stroke at 43 this past May. it took my left side. keep a positive reinforcement. that's the best for me. celebrate the little gains everyday.

Thanks so much for sharing. I have had five mild strokes, the first almost a year ago. Other than a lingering minor left side impairment and some visual issues there is no remaining evidence of the damage. I too was educated in a visual field, holding a master of industrial design. My first “vision” problem was loss of the ability to read. Obviously, it is a cognitive problem, not visual. The road to recovery has been frustrating, and the greatest issue is that looming feeling of “waiting for the big one” that will further disable me or kill me. Hearing of your experiences helped. Thank you.

Can you please tell me where I can watch the movie that you made?

I had just about finished up my really good message & as I was thinking about exactly what next to do suddenly all of my words were deleted!!! Not too pleased with that.

I hope you are feeling better.

Can’t re-type my comment that I took a good amount of time typing out. It was really that poignant. It had a lot of meaning to it. I was responding to what this man was/had been saying. Sorry 😐. Ugh 😑I really wish I hadn’t lost the opportunity to press comment. 🤷‍♀️
