Identity Theft
by Debra Meyerson
Identity Theft was written by Debra Meyerson about her recovery after a severe stroke. Debra is a Stanford Professor, author, lecturer, and an expert in the area of identity.
After her stroke, Debra was unable to speak and had a significant physical disability. Debra worked very hard to regain her ability to communicate and do everyday activities. Identity Theft focuses on the emotional journey to redefine oneself after a stroke. After a stroke, questions arise like: “Who am I now?” and “How do I rebuild a meaningful and rewarding life?” This is a book full of hope for stroke survivors, as well as their families and support networks.
