"My name is Kevan Tupling. I was 38 when I had a stroke. Made a good recovery physically. Emotionally, memory wise not so good and still have problems with speech, but I'm working on these. Confidence was really low. That's when I contacted Different Strokes and joined the Facebook group.
Almost instantly after posting other members were replying. Suddenly I wasn't alone anymore. Reading others posts inspired me and my posts got replies with support. There's funny posts and serious too along with some good information and links.
In general though it's people carrying on with their lives after stroke. The group gave me confidence to do that too. The Different Strokes Facebook group is the best support I've had post stoke. A big thankyou to everyone involved."
