This is the story of a man with a very stressful occupation who apparently had a nervous breakdown because of the stress of his job and the ghastliness in his personal life. Eventually, it was determined that he had suffered a stroke and he slowly tries to reconstruct his life and brain with small steps and many setbacks. His amount of recovery was quite remarkable.
The story was just average for me. I gave it a 3 because of the subject matter, but I felt it could have been tightened up a show more bit. But that's probably just me. show less
Very interesting journey back from the limitations caused by a stroke. I learned a lot about how the brain works and how it can be healed with the latest and ancient forms of technologies and practices.
