Greetings, This month we initiate a new look for the Newsletter. By using new software we are able to eliminate plain text for most readers. To skip to a specific article simply click on the name in the In this issue... section. We hope you find this new format pleasing. Please let the editor know of any comments you have. If you would like to be a sponsor of this newsletter, please contact:

David also reports on an exercise with play dough that was
introduced at the stroke club.
In the meantime we are reprinting an article published in
StrokeNet in February 2001. In "Slipping the Ice Fantastic" Rhonda
recounts a slip on the ice which initiated a visit to the local
hospital. Her story reminds all of us of the humor that the medical
establishment can cause.
It also reminds all of us living in locations with ice in January
that cold weather is coming!
Since his strokes occurred in 1985, he is a long time survivor.
His books are an inspiration for all stroke survivors as they
struggle to recreate their lives.
The site is affiliated with Harvard Medical School and the
University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine.
The ups and downs of his recovery will ring as familiar to many
stroke survivors. Frank is a contributor to StrokeNet.
Although the therapist was not sure if the therapy would really
help increase the use of Sandra's hands, she has experienced great
success. Now she's going to try botox treatments.
Just with is FAQ? I've seen it on the Internet several times but
I've never understood what it stood for. What is FAQ and why does
our organization have these letters? FAQ is an acronym for
Frequently Asked Questions. It's basically questions that most
people are going to ask if they want to know about your web site and
service.
Our organization has a FAQ in order to give you some background
information and insight into our organization. The FAQ is linked
from virtually every single page on our whole web site. If you
scroll down the page and look on the left column you will see a
button with a question mark. Click on the button and you will be
hyperlinked to our FAQ web page.
You will learn about the formation of our organization and it's
history. You can find out who are our partners and learn about our
basic policies. Most of the frequently asked questions can be found
here but if you have more please let us know.
