ABOUT THIS EPISODE
COLLABORATION INTERVIEWS: In this episode of Stroke Warrior Radio, occupational therapist and care partner Kelli Davis shares her fiancé Sean’s stroke and their journey through hospital care, inpatient rehabilitation, and recovery at home. When Sean experienced aphasia and right-sided weakness, Kelli had to balance her professional knowledge with her role as his partnerand advocate when therapy and communication support were delayed.
Kelli discusses navigating the care system, finding community resources, supporting independence while respecting dignity, and making space for caregiver self-care. She also shares how Sean’s personal goals, including returning to driving his Mustang, helped guide his rehabilitation.
Her message to care partners: ask questions, speak up, seek help from case managers and social workers, and make sure the rehab team understands what matters to the person recovering. Recovery continues beyond rehab, and caregivers need support, too.
