\nScene 1<\/em><\/p>\n\n- Wife: \u2018Why don\u2019t we go to the park to get some fresh air?\u2019<\/li>\n
- David shouts: \u2018What\u2019s the point. I can\u2019t do anything like this and everyone stares at me in the wheelchair. I hate it.\u2019<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Scene 2<\/em><\/p>\n\n- David: thinks \u2018I\u2019m fed-up being like this. If I don’t talk to someone about this it will only get worse. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Scene 3<\/em>
\nDavid feels bad that he shouted at his wife and recognises he needs someone to talk to. He calls his stroke nurse to ask her advice.<\/p>\n\n- David: \u2018Hi Susan, I wonder if I can ask your advice\u2019<\/li>\n
- Susan (the stroke nurse): \u2018Hi David, yes of course. Let’s see what we can do…\u2019<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/div> <\/div>\n
By calling his stroke nurse David took the first step to addressing his warning signs. Chatting to the nurse allowed him to get things off his chest and to look at his goals again.<\/p>\n
