DESCRIPTION:
A Reader said Recommended reading for recovering stroke survivors. I have just read this book, one year after my own brain haemorrhage, and I would definitely recommend it to fellow stroke survivors and their families.Don't be put off by the promotional reviews of the book which in my opinion make too much of the humour aspect. This is not, as appears, a whacky comedy laughing at brain patients for the amusement of onlookers. It is simply a sensitive, touching and stylishly written account of the author's life being turned upside down by this most shocking of all illnesses, and his achievements in the long haul back to life.That said, it is a funny book - and it is. Witty and charming, A great book! A Customer Peter Swet takes you through each experience with wit, style and a great sense of humor. I would recommend this book for anyone, not just those who have suffered or have known someone who has suffered from this kind of traumatic injury. He successfully presents a serious subject matter that mingles with humor and hope. I'm looking forward to future works by Peter Swet.. Witty and charming, A great book!
