This is the story of a young man's recovery from a devastating stroke, taking the reader on a journey far beyond the typical "survivor" story, into the depths of a young man's feelings, across ten years of physical and emotional challenges. "Paul does not let anything stop him from exploring and treating life as a gutsy adventure," says Barbara Newborn, author of "Return to Ithaca."

Follow Paul's story from his fight to live...his stubborn determination to return to work...his joy in testing his physical limits...getting lost in a coal mine...lobbying Congress on the space program...traveling to Europe...finding job, losing jobs...building a new career and a new life.

Paul E. Berger lives with his wife, Stephanie Mensh, and two cats in Falls Church, Virginia, a suburb of Washing-ton, D.C. Paul survived a stroke at the young age of 36. In the years since, he has focused his positive energies on setting goals and following his dreams.

Paul was born in Philadelphia, where he graduated with a B.A. from Drexel University. He continued his studies earning an M.A. at the New School in New York City, then an M.B.A. at Marymount University in Arlington, Virginia. After his stroke, he earned a certificate in Architectural Drafting, and started a new career, working full time for building engineering consultants.

Paul began writing How to Conquer the World With One Hand...And an Attitude three years ago. He also wrote the inspirational booklet, "You Can Do It, 55 Thoughts, Feelings and Solutions on How I Cope With My Stroke to Help You With Your Stroke or Brain Injury!" also published by Positive Power Publishing. Paul plans to write other practical and inspirational publications on how to conquer disabilities and enjoy life.

Stephanie Mensh, Paul's wife, has worked as a professional lobbyist, writer, editor and manager in the health field for over 20 years. She is the managing editor of one of the largest private consumer health newsletters, and serves on the boards of various organizations advocating for disabled people. Stephanie is a native of the Washington, D.C. area, where she earned a B.A. in English and Politics from the American University and a masters degree from George Mason University. Stephanie plans to write about her experiences as the spouse of a stroke survivor.
