who i am
about
Name: Ellie (Elisa)
Age: 33
I’m pretty average, but I have a few twists. I was active as a college student and operations manager when I ‘stroked out’ at age 24 in 2013. Now I focus on recovery 24/7, and art as well as my role of the Creative Director of a small gallery in Houston, TX. I’ve got a lot of hard work ahead of me, but I’ll get there.

Life Updates
It’s never easy to accept when a friendship stagnates or ends. It’s been 10 years, 5 months and 24 days since the stroke happened. I haven’t heard from Sharye since work the day before the stroke. I think she came to the hospital once while I was in a coma, but (obviously) I don’t remember…

That moment when…
That moment when I realized that I’m seven years and seven months past my stroke. Wow. I’ve come so damn far.
