I totally believe people can continue to improve many many years post stroke. I think the key might be giving people opportunities to be active, as some people find it very difficult due to many barriers- love to hear your tips!
@RachelLHawe @strokecongress Congrats! We're very proud of you!
@RachelLHawe @strokecongress Congrats to @RachelLHawe for a superb talk!

@PT_to_PhD @stroke_ed @ScotStrokeNurse @strokecongress @dr_nickward @brian_beh You are right, but patients need to search for opportunities to be active. Nothing is just given. I exercise at home, joined a gym, learned to first respect, then manage my fatigue. I have got bad days too, but less and less. Good things come for those who work hard 😁😁

Thank you for hosting this important plenary! Let’s keep revisiting this topic again in future years
Stroke expert Dr. Cheryl Bushnell commends #StrokeCongress for organizing a plenary session on stroke and women - something she says does not happen at other stroke meetings, but should.
Dr. Cheryl Bushnell from Wake Forrest discusses how to improve gender equity in stroke research. A matter of equal gender representation for both patients and scientists @strokecongress @HSF_science @IntNatlWiMS
Great plenary at #StrokeCongress on stroke in women including management considerations and the importance of stroke research properly representing women in the study groups. Kudos the the organizers for including this important topic @strokecongress
