Marilyn's Story   I go to rehab for speech, general fitness, hand therapy, physio, hydro, craft work, and cooking. I have help with cleaning, but I do my washing, ironing and gardening. My family - mum, sisters and brother - helps with heavy tasks and odd jobs that I have problems with. My speech and right hand are affected. Unfortunately I had a few years of ill health. Then the stroke happened with the speech and the right hand problems; I get very tired, more depressed, and very irritable.
