About Me
- Name: Claire
- Location: United Kingdom
I suffered a serious stroke over 10 years ago (aged 43 at the time) and it's been a slow, often frustrating, recovery... I lost my speech and was totally paralyzed on my right side, but with patience and regular physiotherapy, I can now speak, walk short distances, operate the computer, but my right side is still paralyzed. I get botox injections 3 times a year in my right bicep and forearm, which relaxes the high-tone muscles and makes it easier to stand and walk. Last year I started weekly sessions of hydrotherapy, where I build up the wasted muscles by exercising while supported by the warm water. It's bliss at the time, but I ache like heck next day - but it's so worth it :)

How lovely! I love flowers. It amazes me to think that they start out as just a seed...and then bloom into beautiful flowers! I think that everyone has the ability to open up like a flower. They just have to find it. Nature is sooo beautiful to me! *Hugs*
Lucky you! we still have snow! I like your art on your other blog. (:
Wow! Ours are poking their first stems up but they surely aren't blooming. You win! and thanks for sharing!
