In my experience, some people do recover from neglect and some don't. It is my experience and belief that therapy has very little, but some, contribution in this recovery.
It is my belief that significant spontaneous recover will or wont' occur regardless of therapeutic intervention. This is not to say that OT has NO role. I do believe we can facilitate this recovery but only in a limited fashion. The question of how best to do this is a whole different topic.
