Stroke Survivor Stacie Broek is interviewed by Dr Michelle Wright. This is part two of the conversation they had marking World Stroke Day 2023.  

Last time we heard about the events leading up to Stacie’s stroke four years ago and the recovery journey that she has been on since then.  

But as well as her ongoing personal treatment and therapies, Stacie also supports other stroke survivors and Michelle began by asking her to explain a bit about this.
