A book about life after a stroke

One day, everything changed: Élise had a stroke at 27 years old.

In this book, she shares her daily life post-stroke without tongue in cheek, in all honesty and simplicity.

Between blues, rants, doubt and determination, we follow Élise in her fight.

A life lesson to devour without moderation!

The dream is life

“What you are about to read is my experience during 1 year post-stroke. It helped me a lot to confide in this diary.

My dream would be that other patients read it and find themselves a little in it … a lot… even passionately. I originally wrote it for myself, so I would never forget. This diary was my best friend during this difficult year, I only really spoke to it. Then I thought about my family and friends (because I rarely expressed what I felt).

Finally, I started to dream bigger and why not be read by strangers after all? Yes why not ?”
