One moment, a gardener, a writer, a craftsperson, and the next, unable to speak, unable to move her right side.
For fifteen years, Mary Ellen Gambutti had found purpose and joy in the gardens she tended: planting, pruning, coaxing life from soil. Then a hemorrhagic stroke on a summer bus trip through the Pennsylvania Highlands changed everything in an instant.
Fortitude's Footing: Coming to Terms With Stroke is her lyrical account of what came next: the ten weeks of grueling rehab, the therapists who refused to let her languish, the slow return of her toes, her words, her footing. Written in lyrical prose and poetry, it is an intimate portrait of neuroplasticity in action: the brain's remarkable capacity to rewire itself when met with persistence, courage, and the fierce will to heal.
For stroke survivors, caregivers, and anyone who has faced sudden, life-altering loss, Fortitude's Footing offers the honest, hard-won proof of hope.
