(as a relative),

Sarah, Thank you so much for your time on Thursday. You made a very complex situation seem so simple and undaunting. Mum was so happy when she left you and we both feel in such good, secure hands. This is all so new and foreign to us so to have your expert advice and guidance has reassured Mum of the best path to take to help her back to work. Thank you for being so kind and patient with her today.

I think the report is absolutely excellent and I will be really happy to forward to her manager.

Thank you again,

We are so grateful.

Comment from the Stroke Association [SM1]

Hello.

We’re sorry to hear about your mum's stroke but pleased that you both feel in good hands.

Here at the Stroke Association, we’re here for anyone who’s been affected by stroke. You might want to know more about stroke and its effects, be looking for practical information and support, or simply need someone to talk to. That’s where we can help. If you’d like to talk to us, the Stroke Helpline is open:

Monday, Thursday and Friday from 9.00am to 5.00pm

Tuesday and Wednesday from 8.00am to 6.00pm

Saturday from 10.00am to 1.00pm

The helpline number is 0303 30 33 100. You can also email us at helpline@stroke.org.uk.

We also have a range of services across the UK, providing information, advice and support to stroke survivors and their families. You can find out if there’s a service in your mum's area from our website www.stroke.org.uk/finding-support

Finally, you can find lots of information about stroke on our website at www.stroke.org.uk.

I hope this is helpful and that your mum makes the best recovery possible.
