Greetings,
Welcome to the August issue of StrokeNet, the newsletter of The Stroke Network.
Summer is winding down. Hope everyone is enjoying the warmer weather and staying safe!
Welcome Moses Cherrington. Moses, who is a survivor, begins his column "Born Again" by introducing himself and his column.
This
month there are two articles about those who care for Stroke Survivors.
David reports on a Caregiver Appreciation Day held by his local support
group. Deb writes about the Care Partner distinction.
Jim,
in Dancing with Stroke, reflects on Living in the Present. Jeanette
discusses Negotiating Recovery. In The Juggling Caregiver, Claudia
shares thoughts in Life with Dogs.
Bookends to this newsletter are Organization News and Member Celebrations. Be sure to read both!
Please be sure to contact Deb Theriault at dtheriault@strokenetwork.org
to have your Member Story in the newsletter. At one time there was hope
that this feature would be popular with our readers.
Alas,
this has not happened yet. Every survivor (and caregiver and family
member) has their unique story. Deb writes the article with you and
nothing is printed without your approval. Check it out! Enjoy the August newsletter! Lin Wisman Director Information Resources Editor, StrokeNet lwisman@strokenetwork.org |
