YOU have to get involved in this. Otherwise the strategy created and followed will not include 100% recovery. Conquering stroke is nothing less than 100% recovery. Hold their feet to the fire to accomplish that goal. Otherwise they will allow the tyranny of low expectations creep in. Ideally this should be a stroke survivor, I don't trust currently abled people to have the drive and passion to complete that 100% goal, they haven't in the past.
