About Me

I have two daughters – Steffi is 19 and Lily is 10.

I had two strokes – December 2008 (my arm) and March 2009 (my leg, mouth and arm). drs didn’t pick up the 1st stroke. My right side is affected and have clots in the left side of the brain. my maths skills, some english skill are broken and my short term memory is terrible and no improvement with any of those skills so far.my eyes and ears are affected too. hearing – everything is too loud and my eyes still act up. I have new glasses.’an inordinate sensitivity to light and motion’ – this explains it. they act normal sometimes but other times it’s frustrating. Steffi is my carer

Have depression too.

Have  one dog, one budgie and heaps of cats – one is called Baby and she is a Manx. She acts like a dog!
