BOOKS WRITTEN BY STROKESURVIVORS/OTHERS. SENT TO US FOR REVIEW & PASSED WITH FLYING COLOURS.

Wolfgang suffered a brain stem stroke several years ago at age 39.
He wrote an inspiring book of courage, perseverance about his stroke in an informative and easy to read manner. A good sprinkling of humour throughout lends an easy balance to some of the sadder parts. A wonderful and amazing story.

Follow the day by day description of a revolutionary, but very controversial,  treatment where patients rise from their wheel chairs and walk; they regain the use of their paralyzed limbs and hands, and their minds and memories return. 

A remarkable neurologist, Dr.  Hammesfahr, is healing damaged patients decades after their strokes occurred. . Using common FDA approved blood vessel dilators, eighty-two percent of his patients experience major recovery of lost abilities  Another twelve percent recover more gradually.

One Reviewer wrote:

"Don't Leave Me This Way" is an object lesson for anyone who takes his health for granted. What happened to Julia can happen to anyone. What makes the author unique is her determination and defiance in the face of overwhelming odds, as well as her ability to make jokes when there is every reason to sink into depression. This book is an enlightening, inspiring, and moving account of a courageous woman's struggle to regain her independence. Her final words in the book are: "Thanks for all my blessings. I love life." Nobody could have said it better."
