My recovery

G'day everyone. My close friend made this video about how having a stroke changed my life but how I didn't let it get me down. I was doing rehab 11 times a week and worked hard to get back to do what I love doing, snowboarding. I had to learn how to snowboard again but early on this was my drive to get better. I am better physically a year on but my brain is still not right, memory loss, dizziness, etc etc, basically all the things that those of us who have had a stroke experience.

I feel a bit vulnerable posting this I figure if it can inspire people to do the things they love then it's worth it.
