Life after stroke
Recovery doesn't stop when your rehabilitation program ends. Even if rehabilitation goes very well, you may have some lingering disability that lasts for months or longer. The transition from rehabilitation to living on your own can be extremely trying, physically and emotionally. This is a time when the support of relatives and friends can make a tremendous difference in your well-being. Knowing that you're not alone can give you the strength to face this new phase of your life.
