Most days with enough sleep my motor function with my left hand is good. My left side is significantly weak still. Spasticity is a pain but I restarted my catering business and have now branched into cakes. I'm giving it my everything and then some but nothing is gonna keep me down anymore. Everything happens for a reason right? I believe this happened in my life to give me focus and a purpose. I've finally made my peace with my situation. This chapter of my life is truly amazing I wasn't as focused before would always get distracted but now I see it. I do it and nothing is stopping me. I went out a few nights ago with some friends everything was great until it was time to leave and some men started making fun of the way I walk with the assistance of a friend that night and my cane. My friends stood up for me but due to the stupidity of those men the evening could've gone tremendously wrong. Thank God nobody was hurt not even my feelings. I'm stronger now. The world is filled with stupid ppl and fools. I'll keep pushing on especially with u by my side Elyse ❤❤❤❤. Thank u for being there
I love to hear how you’re doing! Congratulations on restarting your catering business. You’re amazing! I’m sorry about your recent experience out but glad you were able to brush those jerks off. You are so strong 💪
Thank you for sharing your story. I’m so inspired that you have restarted your catering business. Hate to hear that people can be so cruel, but incredibly impressed that you aren’t going to let them impact the way you feel about your remarkable recovery.
A little off topic, but I hope that you and the baby are very well. It's great to see you again so soon!
Thank you so much! We’re doing well ❤️☺️
Great to see you again. Touch typing is good being able to use both hands without looking. Its been one year since my event. I walk every day, and i need to rest shortly after woods. With your excellent and practical exercises I plan to safely in crease my range with my walking about. I am going on a night river cruse in about 4 weeks, I am told its one step on and off the boat but toilets are 12 maybe 14 steps down. I have an aerobic step. Its a bit hot and humid at the moment else I would be doing more measured exercise. Stay positive it really helps improvement. I would love to be in a colder country maybe others would like to be in a hot humid place like this. To be honest its not too bad at all.
Thank you so much mam for the sharing this useful video❤
So welcome❤️
Love this channel ❤❤
Thanks so much!! ❤️❤️
Thanks 😊😊❤❤
Thanks it's encouraging me in my recovery stroke journey
Thank you for the update I had a stroke in 2016 and I was paralyzed on the left side of my body and now I have a weakness of my left hand and arm
Of course! Thank you for sharing a bit about your journey❤️
Great ideas. Will share on our stroke support group.
I used a rolling pin for arm extensions. A stationery bike was great for my leg recovery.
Great idea! Thank you for sharing☺️
Please share exercise to improve fine motor skills
@@poojahm120 May I suggest you try picking up coins, chocolates and the like from a table and collecting them in a box or jar. Also a wrist gripper can help.
Great video learn so many tips for working out in my kitchen and in my house. Thank you so much.
These are awesome ideas because they're so do-able! Great video!
Thanks so much! 😊
Another great video Elyse! I have one suggestion for something that I use at home that was recommended by my outpatient OT. I had someone take a rolled up, hand, towel and tape it up to my wall. I use it to push forward to build up strength. I also put it on the outside of my bathroom door so I can strengthen my arm by pushing out and also pulling in while standing in the bathroom. You can also use it to push your elbow back and gain strength that way. Hope they can help someone.
Great recommendation! Thank you for sharing ❤️☺️
Iove this thanks for your dedication to the channel you have dropped some gems for sure ❤

Great items to use for stroke physical therapy!
Is it really necessary to join a modern physiotherapy gym with all type of facilities and gadgets if money is an issue ? Please guide
You can definitely make progress without fancy equipment if you know what to do and what tools to use! It can be helpful to have a therapist guide you based on your specific situation☺️
❤❤❤❤❤
❤️❤️
Good content , but why so much camera movement ?
But I can move my fingers in left hand 😮
Ma'am I'm suffering from brain Tuberculosis.Due to stroke my left part is still paralyzed. Should I do exercise for improvement or rest.
I’d recommend you reach out to your doctor or therapist who knows your specific situation for their recommendations!
