- Summary:
- "What was the first thing you thought when you learned you or a family member had a neurologic condition? Perhaps you were confused, uncertain, afraid, or maybe even in denial. A common thread is often the realization that life has changed and may continue to change, but also uncertainty about exactly what that means or what to expect. And yet, neurologic conditions themselves inevitably change-sometimes quickly, in a matter of seconds or minutes, and sometimes gradually over months or even years"-- Provided by publisher.
