It wasn't, my family was and getting quality medical care, when you are released from the hospital it's about what can you do for yourself like brushing your teeth and washing your body.
Believe me video games was the least of my problems, I just started playing again as my strength began to return and I started to learn to how to do things again. It also part of the rehab program to try and enjoy things that you use to do before you had the stroke. Life does not end if you survive a stroke or heart attack it makes you stronger and my love of playing video games is just a piece of getting back to normal or as close to it.
