Stroke Support Groups
If you are recovering from a stroke, or if you are helping a loved one recover from a stroke, you might benefit from friends who are going through the same experience. No matter where we are in life, and no matter what struggles we are facing, life is just a little easier when you know that you are not the only one on this path. That’s exactly what being part of a support group is about. Finding advice, empathy, encouragement, and friendship from people who know exactly what you are going through. Ask your doctor or therapist for information on local support groups. Or, in the United States, check out the searchable database of support groups available from The National Stroke Association.
