Mulinga Betty, a dedicated primary school teacher, experienced a life-altering stroke in 2018. This sudden event left her unable to perform basic functions such as walking, sitting, or holding objects. Betty was immediately rushed to Kirudu Hospital and later transferred to Nsambya Hospital. Despite the medical care she received at both hospitals, her condition showed no signs of improvement.
In her search for effective treatment, a friend recommended the Stroke Rehabilitation Center in Wampewo. On March 25, 2019, Betty arrived at the rehab center, facing significant challenges. For the first eight months, she was completely dependent on others for feeding and daily activities.
The turning point in Betty’s journey came through the dedicated efforts of the professional doctors and therapists at the rehabilitation center. With their expert care and support, she gradually regained her ability to walk and sit independently. This remarkable progress was a testament to her determination and the quality of care she received.
In addition to her physical recovery, Betty’s life took a further positive turn through the support of Stroke Foundation Uganda. The foundation provided her with valuable training in various skills, including the making of bar soap and liquid soap. These new skills not only empowered her to be more self-reliant but also opened up new opportunities for her to support herself financially.
Mulinga Betty’s story is one of resilience and triumph. From being completely dependent on others to regaining her independence and acquiring new skills, she exemplifies the power of perseverance and the impact of comprehensive rehabilitation and community support. Her journey serves as an inspiration to many facing similar challenges, showcasing that recovery and empowerment are possible with the right support and determination.

Sylvia Mpologoma, a resilient woman from Kawanda Kirinyabigo, lived a vibrant life selling bicycles in Katwe. Her entrepreneurial spirit and dedication were well-known among her customers and peers. However, in March 2020, Sylvia life took an unexpected turn. One evening, after a long day at work, Sylvia returned home and decided to shower. As she was retrieving clothes from the wire, she suddenly felt a sharp pain and collapsed into a chair, hitting the back of her head. Alarmed by her condition, her family quickly called a nearby doctor from a neighboring clinic. Despite their efforts, the initial treatment provided little relief.
Sylvia younger daughter, realizing the severity of the situation, contacted the family members for additional support. They acted swiftly, arranging for an ambulance to take Sylvia to Wanda Matugga Health Center IV. Upon evaluation, the medical team referred her to Rubaga Hospital for a CT scan, and eventually, she was moved to Mulago Heart Institute for further assessment.
The diagnosis confirmed that Sylvia had suffered a stroke. The prognosis was daunting, but her family remained hopeful. A friend recommended the Stroke Rehabilitation Center in Wampewo, a facility known for its specialized care. With renewed determination, they reached out to Dr. Bukenya, who facilitated Sylvia transfer to the rehabilitation center.
At the Stroke Rehabilitation Center, Sylvia journey to recovery began in earnest. The team, led by Dr. Bukenya, crafted a comprehensive rehabilitation plan tailored to her needs. Through intensive therapy, unwavering support, and Sylvia own tenacity, significant progress was made. She relearned to walk, regained her ability to sit unaided, and began speaking again, albeit with some limitations.

Her recovery was a collective effort, involving her dedicated family, compassionate medical professionals, and friends who refused to give up hope.

His condition was critical, and he was immediately admitted to the hospital for urgent care. Upon stabilizing his condition, the doctors recommended he continue his recovery at the Stroke Rehabilitation Centre in Wampewo, known for its dedicated care and support for stroke survivors.
When Mustafa first arrived at the rehabilitation centre, his condition was bad. He was dependent on feeding tubes, unable to walk, and even sitting up . The stroke had left him physically weakened and emotionally shaken. However, the dedicated team at the stroke rehabilitation center Wampewo saw not just his limitations but his potential for recovery.
With a comprehensive rehabilitation program tailored to his needs, Mustafa began his journey to recovery.

Each small step forward was a monumental victory. The occupational therapists focused on helping him relearn essential skills, while the speech therapists assisted in improving his communication abilities.
Despite the challenges, Mustafa's determination never wavered. He pushed himself daily, motivated by the progress he was making, no matter how small. Slowly but surely, he began to see improvements. His strength increased, and he started to sit up without assistance. Feeding tubes were removed as he relearned to feed himself. These milestones were celebrated by his caregivers and fellow stroke survivors, who cheered him on every step of the way.
