National Rehabilitation Hospital (NRH) 🏥🇮🇪
September 2016-March 2017 I arrived at the NRH at the end of September 2016, and I was admitted to Gabriel’s Ward on the third floor.

I allowed myself to use the images above, of some stroke survivors I know. This campaign #StillMe is very close to my heart.
