- Book Synopsis
- <p>How a learning mindset helps create new neural pathways after a stroke.</p><p><br></p><p>We often take our life for granted. We lead busy lives and assume that we can control our destiny, goals, and future. But one day, everything can turn upside down. Imagine you went to bed with a migraine and woke up in a hospital intensive care unit. Doctors tell your significant other that you suffered a major stroke and now have a life-threatening medical condition. You were a busy professional and realized that you cannot even remember your birthday, today's date, month, or year.</p><p><br></p><p>The book is a story of recovery and self-discovery, with ups and downs, struggles, and successes. The journey starts with an introduction that sets the context for a series of chapters describing the physical and emotional aspects of the recovery. After the personal story unravels, the author's intent allows the reader to focus on the most relevant chapters that may interest the brain injury survivors, family members, friends, or healthcare professionals. In each chapter the author describes, in detail, the challenges, difficulties, and achievements as the path forward gradually become easier. This book is ultimately a journey of hope. Overcoming adversity takes a great deal of hard work, determination, and support from family and healthcare professionals. It also takes courage to trust that you can recover-to hope that you can live your life again, with grace and ease...one step at a time, one day at a time.</p><p><br></p>
