Sabeen's story and self help exercises

I had an ischemic stroke on September 23, 2023. The first video focuses on improving my balance, which has been the most challenging aspect of my recovery. I was in a wheelchair for the first couple of months after the stroke. My balance has improved significantly over the past few months, but I still feel wobbly when I go out. At home, I’m fine and don’t feel like I’m about to fall. I believe the issue is more mental than physical.

The second video shows my efforts to strengthen my arm. After the stroke, I had no movement in my fingers and could barely move my arm, but I always believed I would fully recover. Although I’m not there yet and progress is slow, I’m determined not to give up!
