2022 April

Well an interesting and eventful month as we have seen a story emerging on Emmerdale about Marlon Dingle and his ischaemic stroke played fantastically by Mark Charnock, don get me wrong I appreciate that things have to be over dramatised to get the message across and that they have enlisted the guidance from the national stroke charity but the amount of comments we have received about how wrong some of the facts are and the reality a stroke causes a ripple feet to the whole family and Rhona is wondering if Marlon will be back to normal in weeks……..What is normal??   To be honest it takes as long as it takes, the key is to never give up.  Then there was an article in the Halifax Courier about how he Shaymen (Halifax Town) were supporting the SA by donning their purple tshirts during warm ups at a recent game and the article mentioned 1000 strokes – guess what the press release came from the charity and the newspaper confirmed that the press release read 1000 yet it should have read approximately 153,500 each year!!  Doesnt anyone check these things??  And finally as the first advert to air after emmerdale was by the national charity, that wouldn’t have been cheap, maybe thats the reason they are always asking for money, donations etc

I personally think that I would rather tell you about that we do and how we improve the lives of those impacted by Stroke via real life case studies for example a current case study involves a 42 year old lady who had a stroke last August, discharged from hospital and no handover notes and she is getting no help support and guidance because yet again that word plateau is being used. Take it from me, never give up!!  aIl I say, is  2 fingers to the term plateau #WeCareBecauseWeveBeenThere   please drop us a line at ContactUs@StrokeInformation.co.uk    Thank You
