Naida Bellydancer - Update, March 22, 2013
Our dear friend and fellow bellydancer Naida (Virginia Rosales) who is recovering after a stroke, recently created
a new meetup group called Young Stroke Survivors of South Florida; a group whose purpose is to offer support for stroke survivors who are
interested in meeting others to share experiences, ways of recovery, how to get back in the community, workforce, getting the right help,
overcoming depression and many other topics. This support group is design to achieve the right attitude towards recovery.For more information
on this newly formed meetup group, please contact Young Stroke Survivors of South Florida,
