  • Sandra was unable to get in or out of bed and could not take any steps following a massive stroke 6 months earlier which forced her to live in a nursing home under full care. After spending five weeks at Ability Camp she now has new freedom and can get out of bed, walk with a walker or cane and is returning to her own home!

    7.5 years + 6 million steps later I'm still recovering but I have come such a long way. After going from bedridden to wheelchair to cane I can now walk on my own. Still recovering & still grateful. If you've had a stroke the worst thing you can do is just sit there. Remember "motion is lotion, rest is rust" go with God, you got this!

    Your story is quite inspirational! At 45 years of age, I suffered a massive hemorrhagic stroke in June 2014. The first few days, they were not sure whether or not I would survive. After that, I was told that if I was lucky I would be able to use a walker rather than a wheelchair.
    I spent a total of 70 days in the hospital of that six weeks was a physical rehabilitation Hospital where I did physical, occupational and speech therapy. Although I still have some recovery to go, I am walking under my own power and after seven months of medical leave I will be returning to my full-time job this week.
    My advice to folks is to put all their energy into their rehabilitation and let God worry about the things outside of our control.

    That is so wonderful! Glad that you did not believe them. The mind has the power to heal us. Continue your healing process. Blessings to you. My mom just had a big stroke. I will be helping her in her recovery. She will be walking and talking again.

    Best of luck to you. I am going through the same thing. My legs feel like 2 sand bags, but I'm pushing through it. I love proving doctors and specialists wrong.

    Well I dunno what's a massive strome because mine(feb 2020) was hemorragic and for those of you who can read this comment, I am 54 yrs old now.....my experiene is that your body will answer you when it will heal in order to recover certain functions; therapies are only guides...I walk in my home but not outside on the street or in a shopping mall my left arm is still hanging like 1st day without recovery...every case is different
