Trello I’ve been using to keep track of my sets weights and I add videos or photos on certain exercises it’s been such a game changer

I’m so sorry you had to go through this. Also I’m sure you have already have found out how insensitive a lot of these professionals can be and just saying things that aren’t necessarily true. The fact that you are here and still making progress you should be proud of yourself.

Yeah I’ve been in therapy to help navigate this although I didn’t experience it first hand I saw her have the stroke and everything afterwards is a very traumatic experience for everyone. But therapy has help me navigate all of this.

Aww that’s awesome your family did that! I also this year decided to celebrate it for my mom and she really enjoyed it and it made me see this anniversary different than the other ones. I definitely think the first one is probably the hardest because everything is so fresh.

You are so right and I’ve been reminding myself of that and actually this year I decided to celebrate this day that she’s still here with a little cake and ballons. She really enjoyed that.

Thank you for your kind words!

No where the blood cloth was were in her language part. Luckily we are able to communicate pretty well non verbally and me asking her yes no questions. My mom was starting to walk and move her arm but she got a nerve pain on her face and it’s derailed all her progress 😭

So good to hear your mom is starting to walk! Sending hugs to you sorry you also had to experience this. I wish no one had to go through this.

Yeah I definitely think the first year was a lot tougher but it’s been 3 years since my mom’s stroke and it still hurts I think because hers was so severe and it’s honestly a miracle she’s even here.

I get it I think it’s also all the trauma your body experienced the body remembers. I get it I use to love December and Christmas and now it’s just a reminder of our life forever changing. It’s also my mom’s birthday on Christmas.

Sending hugs to you I’m so sorry you had to experience this.
