Young lady you are incredible. Much praise. 😊
Indeed she is.
Amazing story..Listened to the entire podcast..truly inspiring
Thanks for listening Snit
So inspiring!!! I’d often picture myself in a movie while at the rehab hospital like it was my “recovery montage”but in real life not on screen. Definitely gotta stop and smell the roses more often now. Thanks for sharing. Very inspired to share my own story
What’s the movie Called?
@@BillGasiamis the current film is titled”Chris Micro’s Adventures in Strokeland. “
Absolutely amazing podcast..Thank you both
Thank you. Glad you are enjoying it.
Tremendous !Thank you, enjoyed it thoroughly.
Glad to read. Thanks for the feedback
Appreciate these podcasts Bill, good job. I had a major cerebellum stroke five months back, 36 years old and the stroke is cryptogenic with a PFO. In terms of physical recovery I feel I’ve done very well but I would be lying if I said I was doing well mentally. Definitely not in a victim mentality but more an anxiety around the medical system and an anxiety I have something underlying and unseen still. This is the problem with cryptogenic strokes I guess. Maybe one day if I manage my way around this aspect I’ll make it onto your podcast haha. All the best.
Thanks so much for the comment Danlad. What you are feeling is not uncommon, and it may have something to do with feeling that you haven't got any control over the matter. I've helped lots of people out in this situation feel free to reach out if I can help. You're welcome to be my guest any time.
@@BillGasiamis that’s very kind Bill. You’re doing a great job with support, I’ve actually just signed up to your programme via your website and looking forward to it 👍
Had to skip the insurance provided rehab because each time I went my blood pressure was in the 200’s as it was the entire two weeks in the hospital. At home 120 over 60. Must of had a diabolical hatred of medical circumstances. I thought I was having a pleasant time being taken care of by young children who were nice at 76. Went on a cruise that was already scheduled. Drew on a motorcycle accident that happened forty some years before complete with bone and skin grafts with back then no rehab provided. After six months I was doing quite nicely then had a crushing eight foot fall complete with momentum upper half in the raised threshold of the garage and the lower half on the concrete pad of the garage door. Lots of bleeding and golf ball size bumps. My hip to groin muscles seized up squeezing the nerves into pain that skyrocketed with any movement for two weeks and four days. X-ray and CAT scans showed no broken bones nor torn muscle. That pain and going back to using a transport chair and walker again taught me how to balance and work around things at a lightening pace compared to before. An additional bonus was crying at anything no matter how melodramatic which I still do. As a diagnosed sociopath this waterfall of emotion was completely new to my puddle like depth of expression. I hope I never not feel again. It's like being a more normal person now. I feel I am a more whole person now. I don't ever want to go back to the pre stroke person. I am supported 100% by my wife a 30 year nurse who is patient and kind especially when I'm being a cry baby or just exasperated with the pain. She's a real life angel. Emotionally I've always had one foot in and one foot out the door. Now both feet are planted firmly in the relationship. Life's better now. Took a bit to go through and worth all. of it.
Wow what a story, best wishes to you.
I love your attitude I too am extremely positive because I believe in myself. Playing the victim role, poisons the soul….
Well done for believing in your self too.
this video helped alot.thak you
I am so glad
Love you Guy 💕

Hi my brother has pontine bleed.(Cva) c aspiration peunomonia ,unfortunately since 45 days my brother unconsciously lying on bed,
Question were you unconscious and been on bed for that while ,how long recovering took,any specific physio,what you advising us cos doctors told us to stay in hospital and it could take upto anytime,and they told us surgery isn’t possible for such cases.😢so so don’t know to do he is in ICU from 45 days upto date.I’ll be waiting for ur reply.
I'm sorry to hear about your brother's condition. The guest that you saw on the interview does not respond to these comments.
The length of time it takes to recover from a CVA can vary greatly depending on the individual, the severity of the injury. Some people may recover within a few months, while others may require a longer period of rehabilitation.
It is understandable to be concerned about your brother's condition and the length of time he may need to remain in the ICU. However, it's important to trust the guidance of the medical professionals caring for him and to stay informed about his progress.
Wishing your brother a quick and full recovery. Bill
Show medical report.
By mouth, it can't convince the public.
Lies are too many in the world nowadays.
What do you even mean.
@@BillGasiamis
Without medical report, nobody can
verify your statement is true or not?
Which statement that I made are you talking about?
