My mother had a stroke 10 years ago at the age of 60 and she’s made a complete recovery. No paralysis and no speech impediment.

I had one 2 years ago and suffer some aphasia and tremor, but only when tired or under stress.

Feel free to email me if you’d like any other info.

I’m so sorry—I have nothing more to offer, I’m afraid, except “hang in there.”
