The folks that Stroke of Hope sends are very good. They've really done good work with her. It's been slow but I expect it to be slow and she has to accept that it's gonna be slow. She keeps saying, "I'm going to walk in July." And I say, "Hey Sis, face reality…that's not gonna happen." But miracles occur - I don't believe in miracles - but miracles do occur. Today she walked all the way to the front porch! It's going to happen but it's going to take a while and that's her basic problem - she can't accept that reality. But I know Stroke of Hope will keep motivating and encouraging her until she's able to walk on her own…maybe with a walker or a cane but on her own."
