Deidra McLaughlin, a mother of two young boys and special education teacher, faced a life-altering event at 36 when she suffered a stroke on her way back from a funeral. Despite initially attributing her discomfort to a hangover, she found herself in a coma shortly after arriving home. Her recovery journey included battling meningitis and adapting to life with paralysis on her left side. The experience interrupted her dream job and daily life, but with the support of her family and rehabilitation efforts, Deidre has made significant progress, finding strength in her desire to return to teaching and her two young sons.
