Thriving after a brain tumor, stroke, and 16 surgeries

If you’ve been with me a while you know I like to have a variety of conversations surrounding our physical, mental and spiritual health with different types of guests. My guest today is my friend Kay Stacy, who has a unique story of having a stroke while on the operating table at age 25 and is thriving 27 years later. She has some lingering issues she deals with but I wanted to you to meet her because she’s just the epitome of resilience. We talk about how she managed recovering from a stroke while raising a family and even working for a while, the impact of friendships and what we can learn while supporting our friends in medical emergencies, and how that all impacted her faith. 

Kay Stacy is a wife and mother of three beautiful girls. When she’s not using her talents in her garden or helping those in need, she’s inspiring those around her with her message of perseverance. Kay has overcome enormous obstacles due to an acoustic neuroma she suffered in 1995. Through exercise and a positive attitude toward life she has been an inspiration to so many.
