I had a stroke 9 years ago ( 2004 ) when I was 8 , I'm 17 now and I'm still struggling with my right side , this is not easy .
Never give up. I had a stroke as well. The worse of it was/is the loneliness. Love yourself and you'll make it.
Exactly me too.thats y I wanna put more effort
The feeling of nobody understanding what you’re going through
"Never give up" 1.000 times. It's the key.
I had a stroke when I was 12, now im 20 and watching your video brought tears to my eyes bc your doing so good, keep it up.
Same for me stroke at 50, watching this brings tears to me. Partly feel compassion for her and definitely understanding of her struggle.
Wth 12
i had a stroke in my brain stem. i was deny health care i learn to walk again on my own. i watched videos on youtube and took it from there. i thank youtube for helping me recover.

You guys are all amazing, I'm a stroke survivor of 20 years. I was 18 when I had mine. Recovery has taken a couple of years, I'm still a left hemiparesis but I now lead a rather productive life. I ride bicycles and have a full time job was even married for a bit. Please never lose hope and continue communicating with those around you. You are not alone.
I have a stroke on the right side of my body since February 2019 and I recovering walking again .
How long it’ take you to walk again ? God bless
I just had an stroke on October 24 2013 and I lost the coordination and sensation on my whole left side . This video really gives me encouragement to continue to keep the right attitude to walk again . God bless .
Hi, how are you doing now?
@mattbishop1093You have done well. I had my hem stroke in 2021. I struggle to walk, I can bearly use my left hand and arm
Keep koving your left arm too to regain arm and hand function. During the first 6 months I only focused on recovring eating speaking and walking abilities. No one oinformed me ti simultaneously train my left arm. During the height of neoplasticity. Now it's more difficult though Im not goving up. Kep moving your arm with all the range of morions it can. Up down, circular, forad backwards. If or when you slready can move your ower arm back and forth too then your wrist, then imagive very hatd that youre moving your fingrs. Praying for all of you ftllow stroke survivors
i had a stroke. i am 62 and in good shape. God bless you!
I had two CVA's in '69. I did, and still do physical therapy. I don't remember how long it took me to walk, but now, I do. I am independant.. If I need some help, I won't be shy in asking. But I live as good as a life after having had these two strokes. Keep working. Good luck, David
In691969? Forever ago I hope you all good and never have to look back keep me rovkni David.
@lovies|10 Hello Dave, How did has recovery been all those years. I had my hem stroke in 2021when I was 54. I struggle to walk can't use my left side.Life has become so unbelievably. Màlusi
it took me less than 2 months to walk after my stroke, I am lucky but I had to work very hard and continue to do so, now at 11 months post stroke, I am getting much quicker and more fluid, also my body and arm is getting stronger. the key is to be persistent and kick butt every single day whether you feel like it or not. Its not easy but its soooo worth it. dont let anyone put limits on you. giving up is never an option, to be successfulyou must adapt this mindset!!! push further every day
Inspirational video... my son had a stroke 3 weeks ago, it's terrible for me, his 22 years old, healthy boy,...he can't move his left side, it make me so bad, sad....I never though it happen with my son, I have faith him ll be the same as before, and can walk, draw, and play piano & guitar as before :((
Hello, hoping your son made a full recovery! Stay blessed.
Guzelsin Ahu be strong and healthy to take a good care of your son
I was 13 when I had my stroke. I returned to finish grade school but college campuses are so large I couldn't get to my next class in time because I developed really bad anxiety.
I found that aerobic exercise really helps my muscles.
I also had a stroke in November 2016 that left me paralyzed on my left side.I was very depressed. I had to learn to walk again and eventually was able to move my arm and fingers again. Lots of therapy and needed rest. I’m still making recovery and continuing to see results. Many things will just come back naturally over time as your nerves will work around the damaged brain area. A lot of your recovery has to do with your own personal determination. No matter how difficult, just push yourself to keep walking. It’s not an easy journey to recovery. Never quit!
R u okay now and full recovered?
I am in the exact same condition. I had a stroke in june 2020 which had my left side paralyzed. I can walk better now but my left arm and hand still don't function. How long did it take for your arm and hand to work??
@@gabrielantunezjr5994 walking is better. But left arm and hand still do not work
@@mike13tyson keep fighting brother you’ll be back at 100% soon. I’m also recovering from a stroke . Was fortunate that it did not affect my memory or motor movements. The psychological part is what im struggling. I know it will take time. God is great as will get us through this 🙏🙏🙏
@@gabrielantunezjr5994 hopefully. Thanks buddy. You too take care🙏
i thought i was young having a stroke @ 25. good luck, hope you make a decent recovery
Go
I had a TBI leading to stroke last month. Working on regaining my balance. Can't wait to get there.
My mother had a stroke yesterday.
@@mohibahmed2737 how is she??
i will never lose hope!
I’m 20 months post stroke and was a firefighter before this. Right now I would be happy to just walk again . Thanks for these videos and stories they give me hope
I could walk but it feels strange.
My first stroke was on the left carotid artery my second was my right carotid artery..The second one was much worse. Recovery is taking along time..but its slowly getting better.
I went back to school 7 mos after my stroke, but I was able to walk pretty well, sure I was a bit clutzy but no one stared and I wouldnt of cared if they did, I was there for the class which also helped my recovery by the way, the homework studying etc exercised my brain
Mega - great determination after such a medical scare. How are you doing now? What was major?
Thank you so much...you give me hope!!!God bless you!!!
Hi Daniela, I also suffered a stroke very recently at age 27. My right arm recovered very quickly but I'm having some balance issues with my right leg. Its good to see you working hard and keeping a positive attitude. You look great. Keep up the hard work.
best advice I got during my stroke was if I don't use my affected side I WOULD LOSE IT. That's all I thought of during rehab.
Im 39 old. Got mine March 13, 2017. How are you now? How the rehab going?
ya i know.. use it or lose it.. but hard to use paralysed arm and leg
I had a stroke on both sides. Left leg and right hand,I taught myself to walk when my husband took away my wheelchair. I already had started standing on my own after he took my wheelchair away, I've been walking ever since, but I do experience leg pain and buckling knee. In large stores I use the scooters with the basket
how does it work with heterolateral stroke?
Kimkimkim Kwoods ive had two on the same side
I'm 62. Had a bleeding stroke in May 22, and my supervisor was surprise, said I was too young to have one.
I had 2 strokes in 2011 both sides effected trying to rehab is so hard!
God bless u young lady
Yes you can do it!!
I had a stroke on December 18th i was walking again 2 and half weeks later my left hand still kinda weak but it's getting better the stroke was scary
THE BODY SNATCHER BOXING/MMA/FITNESS my uncle has one but his mouth and stuff are okay he said his left side feels heavy I’m so worried for him ...
when the doctors asked me what was the one thing I wanted to do after my stroke. I said walk
Sevin Sinister how's that working for you
ya my left hand is to. the doctors told me the arm and hand will be the last thing to come back because of where they are in the brain, but don't give up.
+Sevin Sinister try heat on the finger tips or pain when I use a lighter on my finger my hand opens up
I have foot drop in my left leg. My left arm is weaker than before.
My stroken happened in 2003.
Keep it up girl!! ❤️💪👍
I had a stroke 7yrs ago and lost use of my left side so I understand as well
Same here, we really can understand what's going on. Hard to explain our mobility problems to those who never had a part of the brain destroyed. You must experience it to understand :(
I'm struggling to keep my wife motivated to do her exercises after her stroke 2 yrs ago. Always ends up in a argument so to keep peace it gets neglected.
Starting to wonder if there will be anything better than this?
im 55yrs old 3yr post hemorrhagic stroke.. still wondering if ill ever be independent again.. no walk or drive left side non functional very sad for myself. that i had to,lose my life so young
@@TupacsHomegirl I'm very sorry for this. What I've learned for the past 3 years as a primary caregiver is drive and attitude are one of the biggest barriers in recovering mobility. I had to walk away from a dream career in technology where I was able to travel to literally every vacation destination around the world for my job, to care for someone who has no interest in recovery. It seems looking at these posts and meeting with therapists and Neurologist you get out of recovery what you put in, and it's a VERY tough road. In certain cases it might even be harder on the person doing all the work and pushing against constant roadblocks, watching years peel off the calendar.
Your not alone, but you seem to have desire and drive, that will likely be the determining factor in your long road to recovery. Folks are still healing 10 years post stroke with gradual progress that might not be noticeable in long periods of time. I do know that doing nothing for recovery, nets nothing.
Hang in there...
Does walking become automatic ever....? I recently had a stroke I am learning how to walk. You have to tell every mouthful what to do I'm wondering does it ever become more automatic like it used to be?
My experience. I had a stroke in 2015. I have needed a brace for my foot. ONLY now I am ready to get rid of the brace. And YES, FINALLY, it looks like the brain has remade the connections and there it is!!! It's becoming automatic. So do NOT give up, keep working (ah, walking every day on a treadmill has been key for me imo) and you might get to this automatic thing.
All the best, keep working and best regards from Spain :)
Well done. Keep going 👍
good attitude!!
Thank you ... I don't know if I accidentally sent you that video but I'm sorry ... I don't know why I did ... if I did. I just wanted to know how long it took you to recover knowing everyone is different ... I have great support ... just wanted to know how you were doing now & if u recovered most importantly 🙏
GOD BLESA YOU!!
Hello Ayo. Yes you can walk again!!! dont lose hope.I am so sorry you were denied health care, that sucks!!! :( I highly recommend you read a book called Stronger after Stroke by Peter Levine..... you can find it on Amazon.
I hade a stroke last year in december and i was 16 years old
i had a stroke may of 2016 and been working towards walking since. it's a process
Hope you are doing well 🙏
Merle Tobias thanks! I’m actually doing really good. It was a hard journey. But whit much willing power was it possible. I’m now going to university and started doing seminars about what happened to me. You can find a few pictures at IG : leonard.marlesson. 💪✌️
Hi ... how long did it take you to get better? I had my stroke middle of December 2019 & able to use a cane ... somewhat can walk without a cane but with my fiance with me ... still trying to work with my left hand but moving & can hold onto light things. Wish the very best things for all of us 🙏
Hi tried to find pictures but no luck ... where do I go? Happy you have positive vibes!!
glad the biking helps you. do you still see improvements after all this time? thanks for sharing your experience!!!!
you were 13?? wow - so young. what kind of aerobic exercise do you do??? how do you feel it benefits you?
Keep at it hun,had two strokes couldn't swallow properly, talk ,right side weak,drop foot and couldn't write!that was 1 and half ago on nmn ,metformin and extra virgin olive oil. The main thing to complain about is ifeel the cold on that side ,iam back to work and getting on with life.
have you recovered?? how long ago was your stroke??
my stoke affected left side april 2015--
+Larry Baines I fought it and nearly won I can ride a pushbike walk miles row this in the picture took up power kitting this year jump on the spot left hand still useless with grip try never say die living with stroke 18 years 57 now
how long it took to recover?
+Diwash Thapa I do not have total recovery I have limited recovery
I had 2 strokes at the same time at 18 years old out of nowhere in February of 2014 while being a college athlete my left side is still numb and I drool from time to time but intensive therapy and the will to be "normal" again drives me to attain what I lost that day. Stay positive my fellow stroke survivors. It's mind over matter
I had a stroke 1 month ago.. I can walk with a foot drop.. its an issue.. I ve realise my affected leg doesn't use much strength when I do walk..
Which country available stroke treatment
Is her arm and hand working now? How long did it take for her arm and hand to start functioning?
i also is stroke now
So sad
Joyce Chan hi, Joyce, keep on trying to walk, I saw a good acupuncture doctor and he help me to walk better, I had a stroke in Sept. of 2016. Getting better everyday.
Terry Wu thks i cant walk normal。
so sad seven months now
Joyce Chan I am in San Francisco, I went to a acupuncture doctor l am still weak but now I can go to the restroom by myself.
Terry Wu Has the stroke been many years right? Are you able to use them now? My hand has not been able to straighten out and can only lift it. Acupuncture is about half a year. How long before acupuncture? I'm so worried that my hand won't get better. Why is it so terribly horrible? I don't know how to restore the functionality of my hand
Hi Joyce Chan, if you have Wechat, look for my name Terry, my Wechat id is: Dragonb8ll or you can search me in Facebook under Terry Wu
I ride a bicycle. I bought special shoes and pedals that clip in so it's rather safe.
I guess it helps loosen up my muscles and deliver oxygen to my brain.
AMAZING ❤️🖤💚🤎 FAMILY DAPHNE COTTON ALWAYS 💜 AWESOME BEAUTIFUL ✨ WALK,
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Im at 60 days still need a cane . But i can walk
How many months she was in rehabilitation?
Hey you tougher than you think you got this pray and diet and drink water
Did she end up going to school?
I tried but I could not stand the stares from people and dropped out.
And I can't get a manual labor job because of my stroke
I can't join the military either
-+
SS told my daughter she can still work with use of 1 limb.
I had a right side stroke, really changed my life. I can walk and talk and have a wonderful helping wife, but the one thing I was determined never to use is a walking stick. Am now 69 and still going strong.
Nicevide
Many stroke victoms are very skinny , it's shocking ! Low fat and mainly veggies might not be healthy after all .. 😮
You can be skinny and have high stress levels and have high blood pressure. I’m young and thin and had a stroke due to an AVM that ruptured in my brain. I ate very healthy and exercised daily. AVM is out of my control. Something you are born with.
Turn off the bloody noise so we can watch itl
