Children who have had a stroke, spend much time throughout their childhood receiving therapies to help their bodies adapt to what stroke impacted. Many kids will wear a hand or foot orthotic or use a walk- aid to help support their bodies in their movement. These differences can be noticeable, especially among their peers.
