Accelerated Stroke Recovery!: Essential Information For Speeding Up Physical Progress, Increasing Motivation And Avoiding Another Stroke

This book is presented in an easy to read all-bullet-points format. The information presented will help accelerate recovery from a stroke and help avoid the doldrums and frustration many people experience during post-stroke rehab. Although the number of stroke victims is increasing exponentially as baby-boomers enter the high-risk age demographic, most people who suffer from a stroke are unprepared, and unaware of valuable information and techniques that can speed up recovery and make the journey easier and less challenging. With the increase in the number of strokes, there has been a corresponding increase in stroke research, and new and effective techniques based on advanced research are impacting therapeutic techniques and improving recovery at an increasing pace. This book summarizes critical information in a user friendly all-bullet-points format. The reader is not faced with pages of unbroken text which can be daunting, and can be a disincentive to seeking out valuable solutions. The answers are instead made painless and easily accessible in this straightforward book, where you can consume content quickly. The author has a background in teaching English literature and creative writing, so her presentation is clear and concise. She also spent years in graduate school studying Clinical Psychology, enabling her to better comprehend the mental and emotional challenges a stroke victim encounters. After suffering a stroke in 2018, the author experienced first-hand the pain, weakness, conflicting information, challenges and frustration that a stroke victim struggles with, and realized there was a need for an easy-to-read reliable guidebook. The book is organized so that you can head directly to the information you need. It covers subjects such as speeding up physical progress, avoiding another stroke, getting relief from pain, predictable psychological changes, maintaining motivation, recognizing and preventing depression, dealing with exhaustion, communicating with your doctor, preventing a fall, healing a subluxed shoulder, help with speech impairment, perfecting your gait, modifying your home, being aware of possible drug interactions, care-giver's needs, the importance of social contact and new breakthroughs in stroke research. The all-bullets format makes it easy to consume content quickly and the Table of Contents makes it easy to head directly to the information you seek. Whether you are a stroke victim, or someone you love has been unfortunate enough to suffer from a stroke, this book will provide many easy-to-implement solutions to ease the way back to recovery, functionality, normalcy and valuable time spent with loved ones and grandchildren.
