Stroke of Insight

Bag om Stroke of Insight

I suffered a massive stroke in 2016 that affected my breathing, speech, swallowing, vision, and motor control. Thanks to neuroplasticity, I expect to recover 100%, but it will take years. According to CDC, 1 in 4 (or 83 million) Americans will have a stroke (during their lifetime). Of that, 18% or 15 million Americans will die from a stroke, and 72% or 60 million Americans will live with a long-term disability. Despite its prevalence, we know little about stroke. This book recounted my experience as a stroke survivor in the early years of 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2019, but shifted focus to the generation-defining events in 2020, 2021, and 2022. This is because rehab in the later years was too repetitive to recount.
