Picture someone who had a stroke, and you’d probably think of someone older, past their 60s. But stroke can happen at any age. For younger stroke survivors, their recovery journey and their goals can look very different too. We hear from Edmond Lim, who recently turned 60, about his stroke at 33 years old, and how he got back on his feet. We also hear from Kathiravan Tangaraju Anthony, Head of Rehabilitation at NASAM, on how they support younger stroke survivors.
NCD Chronicles is a series about people living with NCDs, going beyond the diagnosis to explore their personal experiences, their challenges, as well as the impact of their health condition on their loved ones. These stories reveal the importance of understanding the unique struggles and needs of the individuals behind the disease, in our response to the NCD epidemic.
