    Dr. Jill: Your book: My stroke of insight is really wonderful and an exceptional human-being, a real example for humanity.

    I have written to you immediately after I read your book in Portuguese and I would be very grateful if you could be so kind as to let me have one in the English Language. I live in São Paulo, Brazil, and there is absolutely no English Edition, here, and obviously, having had an English Education, reading English penetrated my soul.

    I thank you so much and look forward to hear from you enclosing, herewith, a Brazilian Embrace from the bottom of my heart.

    Love: maryse schouella,

    And how did you regain your cognitive and physical stamina after your stroke?
