My name Is Grace Draper and I am a stroke survivor. I am 8 years post stroke. I had a hemorrhagic stroke on May 22, 1999.
I had my stem cell transplant on Feb. 17, 2007. It was very simple and painless. Its like hitting 2 birds with one stone you get a liposuction and a stem cell transplant all at once. They don't take out that much fat but fat Is fat. Almost Instantly I felt better but it must have been psychological. I kept on dreaming afterwards that I was walking but it was only a dream after 2 weeks I felt a need to move so I got up and started to walk without a cane a feat I had been unable to do in the past. I could only walk about 25 feet but that was good enough for me. I then took my cane and realized I had better balance on both feet. It felt like my left leg which is the weak one had "grown" longer. It hit the floor much better than it used to. I started walking around the house like a child in a toy store. By the way my left hand which was contracted is looser now meaning it’s more relaxed and open. Even my nail girl noticed it when she did my manicure she said your left hand is much softer now so it was not my Imagination working overtime again. She’s always had to struggle with my left hand but this time was a breeze. I keep waiting for more Improvement because I know they will come. My youngest daughter is getting married on Sept. 23 and my goal is to walk down the Isle rather than be wheeled. But I could do It. Stem cell is the cure of the future. I believe in it. and as long as you believe there is hope.
More to come...
