A marketing professional, runner, violinist and traveler, Elizabeth never considered a stroke would disrupt her life — especially at 40 years old. But it did.

With determination, hard work and support from GSPP Rehabilitation's inpatient and outpatient teams, and partners at Penn Medicine, Elizabeth made a full recovery.

The stroke, she said, also led to an unexpectedly profound personal journey.

During her 100th Spartan race, Andrea suffered a life-altering injury that put her out of the race and on the sidelines for nearly a year.

Support, faith and rehab at Penn Medicine | Good Shepherd Rehabilitation Outpatient Therapy helped Andrea return to form — and to complete her 100th Spartan race exactly one year after the accident.

⚽️After tearing her ACL during a soccer tournament, Gracie was determined to get back onto the field as soon as possible to play her senior year of high school.

That determination and some expert care from Penn Medicine and Penn Medicine | Good Shepherd Rehabilitation Outpatient Therapy, got Gracie back on the field.

This group is kind of a big dill! 🥒

Working alongside the Recreation Therapy team at Penn Medicine Rehabilitation, patients made their own pickles with fresh cucumbers from the Rittenhouse Farmers Market and decorated pickle jars.

Safe to say, everyone had a dill-ightful time!
