EnableMe | enableme - stroke recovery and support

Two years ago I enrolled with Griffith University for a BA which could help my recovery.

I did the first four courses in 2017, but at the start of 2018 I had to walk away from anything for eight months because my beautiful dog died, and a month later my daughter-in-law in NZ died. I grieved so much.

I got back into the BA courses and have completed 9 of them. I am now doing my last first-year and my first second-year course. I have done more first-year courses than 'normal' people do, but it has taken me the entire time that I have been working that I am starting to remember things, and I have read so much more than I had since my stroke!

I won't finish this BA until the end of next year - or maybe 2021 even - but I fully intend that this is my goal for my recovery, and I am feeling proud for what I have done so far!

Hi Louisa,

Fantastic to hear!

The possibilities are still there to live our lives with purpose and fulfillment.

well done...self accomplishments are true gifts..what do you plan to do with the degree

Hi Paul

Before my stroke I read and wrote so much. After my stroke it took me three years to read books again. I wrote most of my recovery - blogs, posts on FB - but my language often didn't make sense. When I have finished the BA I hope to use it to write what I want to - decent language in my blog, and books I want to publish.
