Hi,

I'm in my 20's and up until last week I was fit, healthy and happy..... and then I had a stroke. So this question goes out to everyone else who suffered a stroke when they were young. What was the hardest hurdle you faced in recovering from a stroke and what did you do to deal with this hurdle?

Thank you!!

Also how have you dealt with the fear that you might have another stroke?

Hi Georgia,

 

Thanks for reaching out. I suggest that you message and connect with Sue Bowden she is fabulous and suffered a stroke 23 years ago in her 20's. She has great advice to share from her whole journey.

 

Also Jess who is 26 message her here.

 

Join us on Facebook also to talk to other young survivors. You can post questions there too. We have started a young faces of stroke album in Facebook - you may like to join the conversation there too.

Fear of a second stroke is really common. We've recorded a podcast about the fear here.

Please also give us a call on StrokeLine 1800 787 653 to chat
