BRET HART MARKS 20 YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF HIS STROKE

By Mike Johnson on 2022-06-25 23:27:00

WWE Hall of Famer Bret Hart marked the 20 year anniversary of his stroke yesterday, writing on his social media:

"Walking down the aisle at Wrestlemania 26 in Phoenix. Today marks 20 years since I suffered a stroke. I chose this photo because there was a time when I didn’t think this moment would ever happen again, especially when I was struggling to turn my hand over, unable to walk or stand, and struggling to talk.  When you suffer a stroke, the doctors never promise that you’ll have a full recovery.  I still have some weakness on my left side to this day, but I’m very fortunate to be here today having recovered what I did. I will forever be grateful to the doctors and therapists at the Foothills Hospital here in Calgary and my fans around the world for their prayers.  While the match itself will never be in anyone’s top 10, this moment represents one of my greatest victories."
