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 :)

hello claire!
your son has the same birthday as my lovely husband .. hope he had a great day :-)
Happy birthday to your lovely boy! It's a good thing to be a mom of a teenager. Take it from me - teenagers are fun. I love to see the development of their thoughts, the way they start to understand the world and find a place for themselves in it. Many happy wishes for him!
happy birthday to your boy!
