Summary:
"An inspiring, interactive book and workbook to help
brain
injury survivors and caregivers navigate grief and loss, find their strengths and move forward with a changed life. As a
brain
injury survivor herself, author Carole Starr knows the depth of grief and loss of self that accompany
brain
injury, the challenge of coping with symptoms that are misunderstood by many and the peace that can come from accepting a new life and a new self. Carole describes the journey in a way that survivors, caregivers and professionals can relate to and learn from. Knowing that many survivors struggle with reading and remembering what they read, Carole made the chapters in To Root & To Rise short. The font size in the print version is larger than average, to improve readability. There are also spaces between each paragraph, to reduce the overwhelmed feeling that can come from looking at too much text. To Root & To Rise is also a workbook, with optional questions in each chapter that encourage readers to take Carole’s strategies and apply them to their own experience. These questions can be answered on one’s own, with family members, with rehabilitation professionals, or with a
brain
injury support group. To Root & To Rise is a unique resource for anyone living with a traumatic
brain
injury, post-concussion syndrome, stroke,
brain
tumor or other
brain
trauma, for family caregivers and friends of
brain
injury survivors, for
brain
injury support groups and for medical and neuro-rehabilitation professionals."--Amazon.ca.
