Robert McCrum journeys into his own brain to understand more about stroke. Ever since he suffered a severe stroke in 1995, Robert has been living with its consequences. He says, "It's one of the remorseless side-effects of the affliction that, if you survive it, you will live with its after-effects and the conundrum about existence it poses, for the rest of your life." The demands of an ongoing recovery still have to be met. This two part series is a reflection and continued discovery, twenty years on, of Robert McCrum's condition. Producer: Melissa FitzGerald A Blakeway production for Â鶹Éç Radio4.
