MALVERN, Pennsylvania (WPVI) -- Natanya Sortland's life changed when she had a stroke and then a traumatic brain injury. It's hard for her to remember what life was like before the age of 40.

The Mind Your Brain Foundation helped her find a way to recover through one of their various conferences held throughout the year. And now, Sortland has become an advocate so others can follow in her footsteps.

Sortland recently revisited Bryn Mawr Rehab Hospital with Action News. She enjoyed dancing freely on the same property where she used to frequent in a wheelchair.

Watch the video above to see more of Natanya's story.
