#stroke-recovery — Public Fediverse posts

I've been recovering for over 10 years from what was probably a stroke. Memory loss almost fully restored, but a recent college math class revealed broken connections to ... the multiplication tables, of all things! Successful at comprehending algebra, but CANNOT recall 4x9.

Receptive aphasia is one of the most challenging — and often misunderstood — consequences of stroke. Survivors can hear perfectly well, yet struggle to understand spoken words. This happens when stroke damage affects the brain's language processing centers, particularly Wernicke's area in the left hemisphere.

Onesie Quilt Project

My niece wants me to make her a quilt using her daughter’s outgrown onesies. Leah Day has a practical, inexpensive method, but touching fabric fires off my dang “burning tinglies” that I’m fighting during my #strokerecovery. Also, I’m determined to engage her in the process; not doing hours of work while she sits on her phone or visits friends. So my niece will need to do a lot of the prep work…

Day 2 of retail therapy: just arrived home from *physical* therapy to a stack of boxes. One body pillow to support tingly arms while reading, new pair of AFO friendly shoes (that fit), replacement ultrasonic cleaner, matching left wrist brace for carpal tinglies, and some kitchen towels for gifts.

Whew. Feeling like I’m taking more control of my #strokerecovery and ready to enjoy life more.
