The morning after my 25th birthday party, with balloons and streamers still strung across the living room and birthday cake sitting in the fridge, I suffered a massive stroke. It was a Sunday in February and a moment that would change me forever. The stroke left me with all cognitive abilities intact; I suffered no aphasia or memory loss. But I was paralyzed entirely down my left side. In an instant I went from being a strong, physically active young woman on her way to achieving her dreams, to a 25 year old stroke survivor fighting every day to restore movement and a normal life. With vulnerability, honesty, and humour, I will walk you through my new life and journey to healing and inner peace.
