I forgot to post this, but this is the latest update on my wife's journey with Vivistim. She is now 4 months post surgery. She couldn't bend her arm for 10 1/2 years. As if just having motion isn't enough, she added 2 lbs of weight to it. This is life-changing! #Vivistim #Stroke #DontMessWithTess

3 months post-surgery for her Vivistim device, my wife is showing significant improvement with her right arm! Stroke survivors are getting a chance to regain movement, strength, and function even 10 years later. This is why advancements in tech and medicine are so important. #advocate #Vivistim

As we head into the last week of her time at the Mayo Clinic, the future looks bright. 10 years post stroke, and the potential to start using her arm and hand again is mind-blowing! What might seem like small progression to others are huge steps for our family. So proud. #Vivistim #StrokeAwareness
