The first few months I couldn’t even get my clothes on by myself. I had to use my right hand to eat. Fortunately, I can now control the left side of my body. Four months after my stroke, I was able to walk completely without assistance and now I’m walking again and able to drive.
Congratulations! For some reason, I hadn't seen/noticed that blurb before. I enjoy reading your posts, but I didn't know that about you.

(I will say that in some parts of the United States, having a stroke doesn't seem to keep people from driving. I suspect that being dead wouldn't keep some people from driving)
