"More powerful than the will to win is the courageto begin."

Daniel was the president of a large company inthe United States before a debilitating stroke nearly took away his willto live. After his recovery Daniel moved to Taitung, deciding that he wouldlike to establish a stroke support group. Having suffered loss of control ofhis body, followed by many months of miserable rehabilitation, psychologicaladjustment, and severe depression, Daniel's family was a mess. He realized thatfamily members were at a loss for lack of experience. He felt that his entirelife had been taken away from him. Accordingly, he courageously sought helpfrom stroke support groups in the United States. Thanks to their support Danielhas learned to live again. He is now happy and healthy and can drive, play golfand even table tennis.

Understanding that many stroke patients sharesimilar experiences, Daniel worked with St. Mary's to set-up the first StrokeVictim Support Group in Taitung. By integrating social resources such asintegrated healthcare and social welfare, with the expertise of several doctorsof orthopedics, rehabilitation and psychiatry, this group aims to facilitatethe courageous recovery of stroke victims to their normal lives. Eligibilityfor membership is without limitations and is completely free. Meetings takeplace every third Saturday morning of each month in St. Mary's Hospital.
