Description
'A masterclass in resilience and humanity' - Cecilia Burgess, COO of Bell Gully, NZ
This story gives a compelling insight into the effects of a major stroke that strikes down a vibrant businesswoman, mother and grandmother and her amazing recovery.
Kathleen Jordan, with Vicki Steggall, recounts her stroke journey through hospital wards and rehabilitation units and, finally, her return to semi normalcy and everyday life, sharing with the reader the thoughts, mental exercises, support from friends and family advocacy that helped her to survive.
'There are numerous lessons for every reader in this accessible, emotional and raw story of triumph over adversity. Kathleen is a heroine and her story must be read.' - Professor James Angus AO, President, National Stroke Foundation
'Standing Up! stands up for the importance of family, friends, kindness, purpose, love and hope to stand up to stroke.' - Dr Christine Durham, BrainLink Woman of Achievement
'A powerful testament to the effects of brain injury and the crucial role that family and friends play in the journey of recovery.' - Nick Rushworth, Brain Injury Australia
