Más información sobre el libro

On April 10, 2003 Stacy Gupton, a 21-year-old University of Wyoming art education major, suffered a massive stroke. Life as she and her family knew it came to a screeching halt. A Piece of Her Mind chronicles the powerfully personal story of Stacy's stroke and recovery. Her mother Mona guides us through a recount of their journey from diagnosis to critical care, through rehabilitation, and finally a poignant return home. Forever changed by the event, Stacy and Mona forged ahead, defied the naysayers, and created a new life for Stacy, as an artist defined by her abilities. A special collection of Stacy's paintings and journal entries are featured along with accounts of the impact of her valiant fight for life on other women in her family. The decision to share this story came from the encouragement of friends and family who insisted other people could benefit from this tale of survival and hope.
