A stroke can happen to anyone, at any age.Written by three experts, this inspiring book guides you and your family through all the stages of recovery. As well as providing clear explainations of the medical processes, tests, and treatments, Stroke at your fingertips covers all aspects of life after stroke; from personal care and mobility, to holidays, money and relationships. This book guides you through the recovery process, offering you positive strategies to regain mobility and strength and gives you practical, honest advice on how to carry on with everyday life. In addition, it recognises that the whole family is affected, and talks about relationships and changing roles and tackles the questions you may feel uneasy about asking your doctor.

'It's a good read, covering all of the usual questions people ask. Congratulations to the authors.' - Eoin M Redahan, Director of Public Relations, The Stroke Association.
