Product Description

Review

"My purpose in writing this book, which is rather different from any of the other nineteen books I have ever written or edited, is the hope that it might save someone a little bit of the hell I and my family went through, and give them some inspiration." - Martin Stephen."


Product Description

Martin Stephen was in a high profile job and at the peak of his career when without warning he found himself in a hospital bed unable to walk, see properly or write, and devoid of feeling down one side of his body. One of thousands of people who every year suffer a stroke, an accident of family history presented to him with a way of curing himself. THE DIARY OF A STROKE is the personal story of one man s battle to make a full recovery from a crippling illness, but also a unique insight into the mind of a patient and a condemnation of some of the practices of the National Health Service. A leading consultant has suggested it should be required reading for every doctor in the country. In the words of the author, it was written in anger for the thousands of people who might have made a full recovery from a stroke, but failed to do so.

The Financial Times in Saturday August 9th said that Stephen's account
demonstrates humour and tenacity. I concur.
