Neuroplasticity

Our friend Darrel is a retired high school Biology teacher.  His wife was diagnosed with dementia a couple of years ago.  We were visiting one time about the brain and he shared that when he went to college that he was taught, and then taught his students, that you were born with so many brain cells and eventually they would die off and couldn't replenish themselves or be healed.  We talked about what had been discovered since that time and how Terry had that stroke 2 years ago and the amazing things we learned, that he could heal his brain and reconnect broken lengths through therapy.  It's called neuroplasticity.

I just read about the merits of neruoplasticity in this article Faith to Heal the Brain here
It's an amazing article. For those of you in SLC area they are having a special presentation.  I know there are several of you that would want to attend this in hopes it would help your child.  The book by Norman Doidge is called The Brain That Changes Itself .  I am so curious!  If I was in Utah, I'd go with you!
