Stroke is not the end of the world for stroke survivors and their families. There is always a potential for improvement. The capacity of the brain to recover after stroke is enormous and often continues for months and even years. Because of this, stroke survivors and their families should never give up their fight for recovery and better independence.
This DVD provides important and valuable insight into the lives of people who have survived stroke and for those who are caregivers. These people share their personal experiences of successfully dealing with stroke and its various consequences at different time periods after the stroke. They offer their experiences and coping strategies that you will find useful. Most importantly, you will see that you are not alone and if they could do it, you can do it too.
