Most definately agree to get the current clot and immediate health issues focused on...once that is straightened out, you can refocus and recouping from the stroke. I had a stroke during brain surgery when I was only 22years old, I was paralyzed on my left side. It took a few months to get the basics back, a year or two for finer things, and a few years for the last quirks worked out. Acupuncture helped w/ some of the sensations. But now I'm 32 and prob 95% all me again, no one would know. I'd gone back to college a year after the ordeal and made straight A's and now have a successful career in Corp Finance......don't give up, be patient and just give yourself lots of love!
