“Emerging From the Dark: Stroke…The Untold Stories” by Terence Ang

Having a stroke can be a terrifying and life-changing experience. The sudden onset of symptoms can be disorienting and overwhelming, and the long road to recovery can be daunting.

Many people who have had a stroke are left with physical and cognitive impairments that can make it difficult to live a normal life. They may experience weakness, numbness, paralysis, difficulty speaking, or memory loss. These changes can make it challenging to perform everyday tasks, such as bathing, dressing, eating, and walking.

Despite the challenges, many people who have had a stroke are determined to recover and regain their independence. They may undergo physical therapy, occupational therapy, or speech therapy to improve their functional abilities. They may also need to make changes to their lifestyle, such as quitting smoking, eating a healthy diet, and exercising regularly.

The recovery process can be long and difficult, but it is possible to make a full or partial recovery. With hard work and determination, people who have had a stroke can rebuild their lives and return to a normal level of functioning.

The book “Emerging from the Dark” is a collection of stories from people who have successfully recovered from strokes. These stories are inspiring and motivational, and they show that it is possible to overcome the challenges of stroke and live a full and meaningful life.

The book is a valuable resource for anyone who has been affected by stroke, whether as a survivor, a caregiver, or a healthcare professional. It provides hope and inspiration, and it shows that it is possible to thrive after a stroke.

To encourage more people to understand the plight of stroke survivors and their caregivers, this eBook version of “Emerging From the Dark: Stroke…The Untold Stories” will be made available at 99 cents at Amazon Kindle on October 18^th for 7 days – https://amzn.to/3ZLWRXY
