PROJECT SUMMARY
In our work with patients with neurological disorders, we often encounter patients and families who are afraid.
They are afraid that due to their neurodegenerative disorder or potential treatment, such as neurosurgery, they
will cease to exist – they will no longer be who they “are”.
