Times Of Despair

“After suffering a stroke not only did I have to deal with paralysis but I had to deal with losing my partner of 14 years. At the time I felt like giving up, but I knew I had to be strong for my children. The first time I went out in a wheelchair I thought everyone was looking at me, I hated it and hated myself,” said Riona. Well, this all was just a start of a whole new journey she was about to embark on.
