I suffered a massive stroke in July of 2006. This book took nine years and $3 million to write. I was one of the lucky ones. I was extremely lucky to have had excellent medical insurance through my wife's union; without it I would most likely still reside in a state run facility. Instead, I was able to spend a year and a half, following my stroke, in one of the world's finest brain injury hospitals. I was also able to work with some of the best stroke recovery therapists in the country and to be directly exposed to world class cutting-edge stroke recovery therapies every day.
Now, nine years later, I feel compelled to share this vast pool of personal knowledge and experience with others who have been unfortunately thrust into a lifetime of dealing with post-stroke recovery. In this third book of the Stroke Hope series, dealing with the number three killer of Americans and the number one cause for long term disability worldwide, Stroke Hope stroke Recovery walks the stroke survivor or their loved ones or friends through what it will take, or what to expect, when starting on the journey I call “Stroke Recovery”.
I have had many disappointments and failures along this grueling journey; but I have also had many victories as well. In this book I share the triumphs as well as the tragedies. I share what works and what is a waste of time as well. I said one time soon after my stroke to my wife June that if there was a book that told you what you needed to do after stroke, I would buy it and do what it said to do. Stroke Hope Stroke Recovery is that book.
