Meet the irrepressible Dorothy Kucik in this podcast. Dorothy is one of our Red Hot Mama Phoenixes.

Dorothy had a series of strokes on Thanksgiving 2005 that affected one side of her body. Now, at 65, she is starting a new business to market the Cane Caddy, designed by her son to carry her drinks, cell phone, etc.

Listen in to learn what went wrong in the first hours after Dorothy’s stroke to protect yourself or a loved one if that happens to you.

Not one to lie around, within a few months Dorothy was driving. Of course, you might expect that from a Red Hot Mama who was known as “the Hard Hat in High Heels”.

Dorothy says: “I can peel a mean 5 pounds of potatoes with one hand!”

She is regaining some use of her hand. She continues in rehab. The prognosis? She says: “I’m going to be jutterbugging by next year!”

The Cane Caddy won a Gold Medal Award of Merit in June, 2007 at the INPEX convention in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. INPEX, the Invention New Product Exposition, is the largest invention trade show in America and perhaps the world. Jay Leno loved the invention – and Dorothy – so much he featured them in a clip on his show .
