Stepping out: Stroke volunteers mark the course with balloons at a Step Out for Stroke event in Pontypridd.
When I began the project documenting my father's battle with his stroke, clearly I had no idea where fate and circumstance might lead us. In my opening public comments I essentially concluded my introduction of the documentary with "...and for what I ultimately truly hope will be an uplifting journey to recovery." Even when I wrote those words, I wasn't fully aware, having survived the initial dramatic stroke, how the odds were stacked against him.
Happily, for those who followed the unfolding story, you'll know that my father was lucky to fall into the third of people having such an event who subsequently go on to make a good recovery.
He still has some battles ahead, with both physical and psychological issues - and a prevailing easy fatigue. But last week he began doing a few short driving trips, and this week hopes to return to see his beloved [or traumatising - depending on your viewpoint!] Bristol City Football Club.
So, that minor update aside, I thought that it might be a nice idea - particularly for those who followed this closely/with interest - if anyone had any questions they might like to put directly to my father about his experiences.
Please feel free to add them here in the Comments below. Or, if for any reason you would rather ask a question anonymously, message me, then I'll add the question on your behalf. [So others can see what has been already asked.]
Once again, thanks again for all your support through this difficult period in my/our family's life. I had mixed feelings about making this public, but I've been genuinely overwhelmed by those who've taken time to write and offer their thoughts and prayers, etc.

Finally: Two of the images from this series have been accepted as a small set [with supporting text] for the RGB Awards 2012. And will be featured in the accompanying flagship exhibition for this year's Bristol Festival of Photography. [More on which later in the week. : )]
And the local university has asked to potentially use this series for their Adult Pre-registration Stroke Day for the Leadership for Health Module and the CPD course they have about Life After Stroke.
