Today on the playlist is Bruno Mars, Today my life begins. It is an appropriate song for this week, as it is National Stroke Week. During this week, we will be talking a lot about stroke and the effects of stroke on Australian families.

This week we will also be talking a lot more about the financial strain that families can experience while a loved one is recovering from a stroke. In Australia, there are many circumstances where individuals will have lifelong difficulties and impacts as a result of a stroke.

I will break these chains that bind me, happiness will find me
Leave the past behind me, today my life begins
A whole new world is waiting its mine for the taking
I know I can make it today my life begins
