Hi TootieB, when I phoned Stroke Helpline shortly after coming out of hospital I said I’ve had mild stroke, not a bad one, woman on line pulled me up with jolt ! All strokes are bad your lucky you’ve have no major disability. So that’s the way I view my Stroking now. Sounds like me , we were blessed but it’s still a hill to climb and difficult at times to keep whistling. Good luck to you on this unasked for journey Paul

Ive never seen it that way, i feel like because i was lucky i dont have the right to not be 100% because of my stroke.
But its so simple all strokes are bad! Thank you
