My mother has has a massive stroke. This book has helped me in so many ways. How she can be affected, as well as, what to do to help her. The what to expect, and what part of the brain it comes from was the best. How the brain starts right away to begin to heal itself. Even though she has lost the entire left hemisphere of her brain, she has with therapy, begun to say words again. And she has always been able to understand, as well as, comprehend. Would suggest book to anyone going through this.

It was easy to read and understand. Glad I got the book as it helped me understand what was taking place with my stroke.

I had a stroke almost 3 years ago, I have a leg brace, little going with my arm, and aphasia. This book is general however. I have used it some, however. Most of the information in the book is elementary however, and I already knew it.

This is a pedestrian book not worth the price. It conveys very little information and is a waste of time.

While I found this book interesting it would be most disappointing if I were someone looking for real answers. If someone is looking for real recovery then I would recommend a book called Peeling the Onion:
Reversing the Ravages of Stroke. In 2000 my grandmother had a stroke which left her paralyzed, unable to roll over in her bed and unable to speak. Long-short, I took a shot and took her to this clinic where, in less than a week she and I were again having two-way conversations and she could transfer herself from the car to the wheelchair. By the time we went home she was walking 400 feet with a walker. Strokes change families but they don't have to be permanently debilitating. If you are looking for help for the stroke and not just a book to read, you might want to order it. Thank God for Dr. Hammesfahr and his stroke therapy!Peeling the Onion: Reversing the Ravages of StrokePeeling the Onion: Reversing the Ravages of Stroke

This a book that will give you an overview of the main causes of stroke and what to expect as of "The Day After". A good source of "initial" information after you or a loved one had just had a stroke. This book is for a family member suffering from sleepless nights on the waiting room while the stroke patient is in the Intensive Care Unit or those who have just woke up after a stroke and still lack basic info. The information provided by the book is useful, but most of it is already available in the many stroke reference sites throughout the internet. If you already have some education about the topic, this is not the book for you.
