Sam’s Gift, a short novel by Harry McNaughton that describes one man’s transformation after his stroke, helped by ‘Take Charge’. Lots of detail about how a Take Charge session might happen in real life. The paperback is available from Amazon here (£8.99) but you can download the eBook for free here as a pdf file or epub file and read them on your phone or computer using Kindle or another free eBook reader like Aquile Reader (available from the Google Play Store) which allows you to adjust text size and even to read the book aloud to you.
