After suffering a stroke and the onset of aphasia Dr. Ruth Resch
engaged successfully in the difficult process of separating the
'verbal mind' from the visual mind, thereby providing a platform
for arousing previously enjoyed pleasures in painting, drawing, and
music. These evolved as places of rest and avenues of healing
fulfillment. As a person with aphasia she found no comparable
equivalent in the world of words. Her expression through art
translated into a feeling of balance, an adaptation through the
creation of pleasure, which she views as central to the life of
recovery. Dr. Resch describes her quest for meaningfulness in all
aspects of daily life and how she has learned to use the
environment as a source of fulfillment and well being. Her ability
to connect with the ever-changing natural environment has provided
easy access to a stimulating non-verbal world. Readers at all
levels, patients, students, and clinicians, will gain a deeper
understanding of the inner life of someone with aphasia. We are
grateful to Dr. Resch for sharing her innermost feelings in
describing her long journey in the quest for a new life. Her
courage, integrity, and passion for the human spirit are an
inspiration to us all.
