I have been in the Intensive care unit for a week, I had a carotid artery bleed-out and 2 strokes which have left me impaired. I almost died twice. I am typing this with one hand as I have lost the ability to type with my left hand. Much threapy ahead. A lot of changes for sure. I will need both physical and cognitive therapy.

@jubilant

My cousin's husband had a dual procedure done last Fall at one of the best hospitals. The carotid one caused a stroke and was immediately followed by a heart bypass.

The stroke episode led to all types of therapy: physical, occupational ( he is retired ), swallowing and speech. He, like a recently elected US Senator who stroked, is being treated for depression which is common after a stroke.

He is now doing more than he ever has done around the house; drives himself to PT; and, is looking forward to golfing as his left arm continues to improve. It is amazing.

I share this with you because there is hope for a future: the road takes commitment and is sometimes hard. However, it is your choice. There are folks here, myself included, who support you with our prayers and posts.

Let us know how you are making progress....🦋💐🥇

@jubilant , on June 16 I was admitted for the same. A stroke and emergency carotid endarterectomy. One week in Intensive Care. Why when both of us had heart attacks were we not given a Doppler??? My right carotid is inoperable at 100% blocked. The left was at 99% blocked before surgery. I have some limitations now but you can do this!!! Take the statins and do everything to get well!! After a few weeks you will see things improving. When I got home, I could barely walk and now I am planning to go to a mall and try walking again.

I will be praying for you...💕💕💕

@jubilant, sending healing wishes your way. One day at a time and stay positive. Events like this are very stressful but we learn that we are stronger than we think. Wishing you all the best and please keep us updated.

@Trinity11, I'm sorry to hear about what you went through. Thankfully it sounds like you are doing well. None of us know from one day to the next, good health is such a gift often taken for granted when we are young.
