Hospital stays after a stroke are often short compared to the lengthy period of rehabilitation and gradual return of function. After a Stroke concentrates on the home recovery process, assisting patients and their families in the transition from patient back to person. Author Cleo Hutton, herself a twelve-year stroke survivor and nurse, gives readers tips she learned and used herself during her recovery. She addresses topics such as communication, emotional liability, safety issues, personal care, relaxation techniques, and intimacy issues. The book frankly discusses self-esteem issues and using humor as a healing tool ? no subject is off limits. Over 300 tips cover everything from dressing, hair care, cooking, and airline travel to using a computer and alleviating pain. After a Stroke describes in detail how to accomplish daily living routines, combat fatigue, enjoy recreational activities, and how to turn stroke deficits into assets. Hutton leaves no gaps in relating what families and fellow stroke survivors need to know to live a full life post stroke.
