U.S. Senator Mark Kirk (R) is expected to return to work this week less than a year after suffering a major stroke.
The 53 year-old says he was elected to represent the people and he will make good on his promises. It's an amazing feat considering the stroke left Kirk nearly paralyzed on the left side of his body.
He underwent a "boot camp" style rehab regiment, even doing practice runs of what it'll be like when he's back on the job.
