After stroke, after a trauma, I know that I wouldn't have had the relationship that I do with my kids now had the stroke not happened.

She shares the raw and emotional moments, from her children initially mistaking her stroke for a migraine to the daily challenges of rehabilitation.

Therapy became an integral part of her daily routine, providing structure and hope.
