I wish I had UK links similar to the US ones you provided. I was trying to speak to a 'human' only this pm to sort out a problem with 'easy jet' an airline co. I finally gave up as they suggested ringing a premium tel no which would have cost the equivelent of about $3 a min. and I could see it costing me a fortune just to sort out something that is not of my doing (if that makes sense).

5th Anniversary of the Stroke

Nearly 5 years ago, I suffered a stroke that left me with numbness and lack of coordination of my right hand and arm. For awhile, I could not speak normally, and I couldn't say my husband's name. With time and occupational and massage therapy, sensation began to return. My speech cleared up within the month. I relearned how to brush my teeth and hair, how to butter toast, how to handle a fork. I used a speech program on the computer for several months, because my right hand could not type. I am very grateful for the lessons I learned from this experience. After 5 years, a person is considered to be at no increased risk of having another CVA (cerebrovascular accident). That's my upcoming milestone!
