You are invited to join an exciting meeting with Louise Jenkins!  She is one of my favorite people and a very dear friend!

 

At noon Friday Sept 17, Louise will start to share her experience as a survivor, how that led to her starting started the Stroke Ambassador program and her insight into stroke recovery. There will be Q&A session in which Louise address to a number of questions our group will submit.

Hi! My name is Joanie Peckels. I had a carotid dissection 22 years ago when I was 35. When I had my stroke I was totally paralyzed on my right side and I could not speak at all for 2 weeks. During that time I could not read or add 1 and 1 together. I had two little kids aged 6 and 8. I was right handed but now I’m left handed for the second half of my life! I have come a long way and now, I volunteer at PeaceHeath SW hospital as a Stroke Ambassador and I am a grandma! I have helped run the PeaceHealth Stroke and Brain Injury Group with the Stroke Coordinators there for about 14 years.

My contact info is 360-907-4457 or strokeambassador@gmail.com
