Ken I agree that no matter how far out from the stroke you can always improve if you are determined to. Ray had a six weeks program, one morning a week about four years ago that gave him a real boost. The people were friendly and positive about his improvement and that helped a lot. I was glad of the changes as it did enable us to do more for a while.

I think you do very well with your job and all you fill your life with. Congratulations on your progress.

Ken :

you have such a great attitude towards life. I feel with that attitude half battles are won in life.

Ken,

You said it all I wish everyone could get into therapy a couple times a year but that doesn't happen with many of us and for some they never been to therapy!! It does help you learn to move the affected side and you can keep on doing the exercises for years to keep getting better even at home!!

Hi Ken: You are right--a positive attitude is essential toward therapy. I am currently working on my walking with the Bioness L300, and though progress is slow, it is important to put in my hour of walking every day. I feel I am getting stronger and improving my balance, the key to independent walking. Besides, it gets me outside! All the best, Henry
