I have 30 years of environmental services professional with experience and have successfully completed over 50 environmental courses and workshops. I am an internationally published author and have written several articles.
I have investigated urban sites in 22 states that have been contaminated with substances ranging from oils and PCBs to chromium and other metals.
I was doing fine and all of a sudden, December 13, 2006.. ."I had a stroke" due to high blood pressure on.
I am working on my recovery. I am walking and thinking just fine. I have trouble talking and using my right hand. I have what's called "aphasia." It is a communications impairment that makes talking difficult. I go to the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago, Northwestern University, University of Chicago and Rush U. Medical in Chicago to assist in my recovery.
I have a new mission statement which helps me live with aphasia: To walk on the water, you've got to get out of boat!
Many people who have a stroke don't find the motivation they need during recovery. Family members don't know what to do for them. So I was thinking about my own self and how I was motivated during my recovery. I have kept a journal for many years that has helped me with my recovery. I hope my journal will help others with their recovery from a stroke. I re-read my journal and I'm sharing with you some parts of it and some biblical passage that helped me.
I was thinking about my own experience and the source(s) of my motivation during my recovery.view less
