Ray Bekeris discusses his stroke story as Read Write Now celebrates its 45th anniversary

A couple of weeks ago, Read Write Now contacted me to ask if I could interview Ray Bekeris, a remarkable man who has worked hard on recovering his functional abilities after experiencing a significant stroke. Read Write Now is celebrating its 45th anniversary of delivering free tutoring to adults who want to improve their literacy. Ray chose to contact them as part of his quest to be able to read and write again, and not only to read and write, but, as it turned out, to write books. He began with writing down what had happened to him on the way home from work that fateful day.

The interview begins with Ray and his tutor, Marny, talking about Ray's involvement with Read Write Now. It then branches out as Ray reflects on the journey from a point of not being able to walk or talk, to where he is today, someone who can walk, talk, drive a car, and write a compelling story.

His book can be obtained through his website: raybekeris.com or this link: Ray's Website
