A Wonderful Stroke of Luck
From Occupational Therapist to Patient and Beyond
Janet R. Douglas was an occupational therapist who helped stroke victims gain re-use of their hands. Years later she had a massive stroke. The book details her attempts to recover "the elusive 90%" of her physical and mental abilities. As she regains the use of her body, we share her physical challenges and humiliations; as she recovers her memory we share a life story that spans the globe. By the end we also share her triumph of spirit, determination, and her love of life and other people.
