"Thankful for patience and continuous motivation"

It happened in early May in the morning when I felt headache; cancelled my vaccination and called emergency services. They asked me to come to Queens Medical centre.

After my initial check ups, they found, there was a clot in one if the nerves in my brain. On further investigation, they diagnosed it to be a mild stroke. I was shifted to rehabilitation centre in city hospital. Physiotherapists there took me on straight away and devised a rehabilitation program as I developed double vision and started to lose my balance. 

I was discharged after three weeks. and community physios started regular visits after I came back to home. They started with body balancing and eye movement exercises. The recovery was slow and little frustrating sometimes though. They patiently kept coming in and contacted over the phone when they were not able to come for scheduled visits. The help from Red cross with wheel chair, toilet chair and bathing stool was very prompt and timely. 

I would like to thank Helen, Hannah, Eve and Posy for their patience and continuous motivation. Without their constant advice and motivation, I wouldn’t have gained the courage and confidence to slowly start doing things one needs to learn again after brain injuries. 

I have returned back to work since Feb and mostly working from home at the moment.

Care in hospital, rehabilitation unit, chef preparing food, nurses, physio teams there, red cross, community physio teams all deserve my sincere thanks 🙏.
