[QUOTE=amwebby;229052]My wife has severe hemiplegia as a result of a stroke suffered during a brain operation. She has some movement and use of her left leg but little-to-no use of her left hand or arm.
oh it can be done with one hand my only problem is i seem to get itchy spots and have to stop to scratch or adjust my baseball hat.i definately get out to see the neighborhood more and can slow down to check out the flowers as i want. definitely surprising but it cab be done easily, write me if youd like i have quite a lot of stroke knowledge im happy to share not just seg stuff.things you might not have thought of.
