A Stroke happens when a part of the brain dies from lack of blood. The people in this park have all suffered from a stroke. Dan, the young man in the background has lost the use of one side of his body. Molly, is a mother of two. Since the stroke she has lost the capacity to co-ordinate her movements - her frustration tears her apart. Arthur, loved to read. Now he can only see half the page as his vision has been affected.
