I’ve been reading a fair amount of books about strokes and surf the web a lot about Rob’s various conditions. If anyone has a suggestions for reading, we would be very interested. I also have a “wish list” on Amazon for books I am considering when I have the time/money (some books are on other topics). So far, here is the list of books we already have:
Books (English)
- My Stroke Of Insight – Jill Bolte Taylor
- Stroke Survivor – Andy McCann
- Rewire Your Brain, Rewire Your Life – Bob Guns
- Healing Into Possibility – Alison Bonds Shapiro
- Stronger After Stroke – Peter G. Levine
- The Brain That Changes Itself – Norman Doidge
- My Year Off – Robert McCrum
Books (Dutch)
- Leven na een beroerte – J. Palm
- Mijn jaar vrij – Robert McCrum
- Wegwijzer na een beroerte – Nederlandse CVA-vereniging
Ander Boeken en Lectuur – Nederlandse CVA vereniging

Will be adding some soon…
I haven’t started that one yet, but will soon. I’m really into the idea of brain plasticity — and not just for stroke survivors. Rob and I have talked quite a lot about it too. We are curious if he might tap some parts of his brain he was not even aware of. Who knows, maybe the next Van Gogh or Mozart!
I received Bob Guns book today..rewire your brain…will start reading this evening!
