Stroke can happen to anyone at any age and
at any time. Most victims survive, but many
suffer debilitating effects, and rehabilitation
is often difficult and confusing.
STROKE RECOVERY features caregivers,
family, friends, doctors, and other allied
professionals, along with survivors—
including one woman whose infant
daughter had a stroke, and another who has
spent decades advocating for patients.
Practical and inspiring, the film covers all
aspects of recovery, and identifies the best
approaches to restoring—or at least
reinventing—one’s health and life.
“Brings a message of reassurance.”
—Booklist
“Optimistic yet realistic...An informative
guide for those dealing with the aftermath of a
stroke.”

About 20 Americans die every day while
waiting for a transplant. In DYING TO
LIVE, we experience a year in the lives of
four people awaiting life-saving organ
transplants—and who have become sick
enough to get close to the top of the waiting
list. Interlaced with their stories are those of
donors, and the emotional meeting between
an organ recipient and the family of her
donor.
“A good resource for patients waiting for organ
donation, considering becoming an organ
donor, or seeking to learn about the process and
guide others through decision-making.”
—Educational Media Reviews Online
“The heart of this film lies in the stories of the
patients and their families... The filmmakers
handle the sensitive nature of this topic with
respect and care.”
