Dear Friends and Supporters,
Herb and I thank you for your encouraging
responses since the release of our book, One Stroke,
Two Survivors. Our website receives thousands of visitors from around the world and we do our best
to respond to each email. How wonderful to hear from so many caregivers, survivors, physicians and therapists!
Sudden, massive illness is difficult
enough. But recovery is often an arduous, lonely journey with little support. Fear and frustration in navigating the medical
labyrinth
too often hinder the fight for survival and recovery. We’ve been there. And throughout
our fight, I muttered, “there has to be a better way!” One Stroke,
Two Survivors documents our journey so others who follow may learn from our successes and failures.
Because of the positive response to
One Stroke, Two Survivors, we’re
pleased to announce our follow-up book, Lessons Learned: Stroke Recovery From A Caregiver’s Perspective. This
softcover handbook addresses chronic illness and long-term disability with practical answers to
the “what do I do next” questions NOT covered in hospital information guides. You’ll find
it listed on Amazon.com and will arrive in bookstores in early summer ‘07.
We hope our books help make your journey
a little less harrowing and a little more workable.
Best,
