Resources about stroke effects

Simple resources for stroke survivors and loved ones are all over the Web. I stumbled across this one recently, a Web tool to explore the effects of a stroke, courtesy of the National Stroke Association:

Stroke affects physical, cognitive and emotional functioning, but there are things that can be done to reduce the impact of post-stroke effects. Each patient’s stroke experience is different and depends on the type of stroke and which areas of the brain are damaged.

Effects can be experienced at varying degrees at any phase of recovery. Understanding the nature of the effects of stroke and what can be done about them is the first step to recovery.
