NASAM-National Stroke Association of Malaysia.
STROKE!!! How far do all people know bout it?
According to NASAM, do you all know that, in Malaysia , STROKE is the 4th largest killer after cancer and heart disease? it cause sever disability. And patient need a looooong and costly in rehabilitation .
And now all he stroke patient is getting younger and younger! some people even got STROKE even at their early 30! their prim of life! scary isn't it?
From what I saw at the center? I begin to feel grateful for those who survived and starting their rehabilitation and gain back mobility step by step. At the same time, it also remind myself the important to take care our love one and ourselves while we are young. Before all being toooo late....
Do you all know? most of the patient after stroke attack they need alot courage to regain back the confident and mobility? Do you all know? most of them are not that optimistic and are giving up themselves?
If not all these association, and all the volunteer worker... patient who are in lower economic status might still suffering the continuous impact of stroke.(muscle atrophy, fracture and etc...) and so... A big CLAP to all NASAM staff and volunteer worker who giving out their love and care to help strokee in all the rehabilitation.
Ok, so....
what is STROKE???
stroke is a brain attack. The brain controls various functions of the body and this vital organ need to be nourished by blood and oxygen 24hours a day. The nerve cells in the brain control all our 5 sense including all our physical and mental actions such as breathing, moving, thinking and talking. STROKE occur when blood vessel bringing blood and oxygen to the brain cells burst or get blocked.
so... once part of our brain get affected, it will affected our daily living activity...
it seems soooo easy for us just to feed ourselves, put on our cloth, doing all those things that we never think it will be so freaking hard when come to a stroke patient. Cause all of these need coordination, isn't it? so be grateful when you are healthy and can walk, talk, eat like everyone else. People should feel happy whenever they are healthy! Right?
well..... from what I learned in NASAM, their tag line are : the is life after stroke!
yes, it is! just have to be positive and patient can gain back their activity.
ok..... let temporary stop here, video up....
at NASAM, patient at there showed me , how to face this world positively.... they are strong! and beautiful!
although the road of rehabilitation is not easy, and sometimes it might be painful... but they are still continue doing it, to make themselves stronger and cope into our society.
At there, I also saw LOVE, love from partner and family who didn't give up on their stroke partner, encourage them, accompany them along the rehabilitation. That the great LOVE. *clap for them! *
most important thing, I saw GRATEFUL. our world now is full will all those desire, make people never be grateful with what their own and what their having. And turn up to be more greedy and having all the negative side.They never feel happy.
At NASAM, even though just a small action, a sport activity... can just make all patient face full with smile and make the hall full with laughter. Is so simple,to be happy, isn't it?
okay peeepall.... till here....
