In my quest to inspire someone, my mom, a fifth-time stroke survivor, is now back home on hospice care, defying the odds after a long journey through nursing homes, oxygen support, a tracheostomy, and a feeding peg tube. Love and unwavering support have been our guiding lights. Never lose hope! -Janet
