Story

I had a stroke 2 years ago this November. I was at work. I was an executive Housekeeper. They called the ambulance. They took me to the hospital. I couldn't hear or talk. I was 32 years old.

When my parents came, the doctors told them that I had a massive stroke.Finally, I began to hear but I couldn't talk, I couldn't walk or I couldn't use my right arm and hand. I had to go through therapy for 2 months.

Finally, I could walk, but I couldn't use my right hand. I had to teach myself how to write with my left hand. I get depressed sometimes, but I get over it with my family and friends.

I'm still going to speech therapy. I had to make new friends because all of me old friends left me because they couldn't handle it. It has been tough on me because I was supposed to get married but he left, too.

I can talk now but slowly. I won't let this stroke beat me. I can't go back to work now, but I plan on it someday.
