Recently I was having trouble opening my garage door. We have had the same code for years to open the garage door. After several frustrating tries garage door opened. Instantly I was worried that my brain fog manifested to the point where I could not remember numbers. Aphasia is different for different people. For me, handwriting, numbers, and reading are difficult. After my strokes, I was supposed to walk for exercise. However, my wife would let me walk until I could understand the numbers for our address. Even now punching in a garage code and looking at the numbers for our street address is difficult. When I am exhausted or stressed it’s even worse. The good news is the issue with the garage door code was a dead battery.
I am a stroke survivor. My blog is about my recovery, family, and possibilities.
