Welcome Friends!
Thank you so much for visiting my site! My family and I have been on quite a journey over the past 19 years, filled with both blessings and challenges. These challenges include a massive stroke at age 29, epilepsy due to the stroke, and later becoming a Mom to three older internationally adopted children. I am so thankful for the faith and positive attitude God has blessed me with to persevere through these challenges. I hope my journey will encourage you to do the same!
I felt called during the winter months of 2021 to write down my story and start exploring speaking opportunities in order to encourage and equip others. I have signed a contract with Trilogy Publishing, a subsidiary of TBN, and am SO excited! My first book published in March, in time for Stroke Awareness Month in May. I am still busy today, marketing my book, doing book signing events, and appearing on podcasts to share my story with others. You can learn more about my story under the "About Me" section. My writing journey continues, and I am working on a 31-day devotional now. I have also had the privelege of being a compilation author in four other books, set to come out in 2022-2024.
One of my favorite Bible verses is Jeremiah 29:11-13 NIV. It says: 11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. 12 Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. 13 You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.
I believe God has a unique plan for each of us, but He gives us the choice whether we will have faith in Him and follow His plan or not. My book is about those choices and my journey. God’s plan led me down the rocky road of medical challenges but He also blessed me with a wonderful husband of over 24 years, great parents, and the opportunity to be an adoptive Mom. I have a lot I am truly thankful for!
So thank you again for being here, take your time, look around, and learn all there is to know about me and my journey. I hope you enjoy my site and sign up for my newsletter and blog feed below!
MY STROKE RECOVERY JOURNEY, STROKE AWARENESS, AND MY BOOKS
MY RECOVERY, SWAN REHAB, and ORIGINAL OWNER: KAY WING
May is National Stroke Awareness Month and October 29th is recognized as World Stroke Day. Although it has been years since my stroke, I wanted to take this opportunity with the recent release of my first book to bring more awareness to stroke throughout the month of May and again in October. Stroke affects every survivor differently. A majority of the time, stroke leaves survivors with some type of lingering disability.
I am so thankful for all that participated in my recent stroke awareness fundraiser to help raise money for scholarships for stroke camp at NAU. Total raised was $1675!
STROKE AWARENESS
At age 29, at the time of my stroke, I was not aware of the signs of a stroke like I should have been so am more passionate now on making the signs of a stroke known to others. A popular acronym to remember is BE FAST!
- BALANCE Difficulties, Headache, Dizziness
- EYESIGHT Changes, Blurred Vision
- FACE Drooping or Weakness
- ARM Weakness or Leg
- SPEECH Difficulties
- TIME to Call 911

Back Cover Summary
God always has a plan.
But He leaves it up to you whether you follow His plan or not.
Life is about choices.
I have chosen to depend on God's faithfulness through our challenges.
- Everyone has doubts about their own abilities, but God has a plan for each of us.
- So believe in Him, and don't give up.
- Sometimes your attitude, drive, and enthusiasm can take you further than your talents or abilities.
- Attitude can make all the difference.
- Find your happiness in who God says you are.
- Don’t let someone else define your happiness.
