Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain! trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 12% effective). I have 523 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.

What this blog is for:

My blog is not to help survivors recover, it is to have the 10 million yearly stroke survivors light fires underneath their doctors, stroke hospitals and stroke researchers to get stroke solved. 100% recovery. The stroke medical world is completely failing at that goal, they don't even have it as a goal. Shortly after getting out of the hospital and getting NO information on the process or protocols of stroke rehabilitation and recovery I started searching on the internet and found that no other survivor received useful information. This is an attempt to cover all stroke rehabilitation information that should be readily available to survivors so they can talk with informed knowledge to their medical staff. It lays out what needs to be done to get stroke survivors closer to 100% recovery. It's quite disgusting that this information is not available from every stroke association and doctors group.

2012 review

It was a good year, started out umemployed. After innumerable applications and 3 different writeups of my resume. Got hired in May for a start date, June 20. It did require me to move to East Lansing, MI by myself, now I'm in an apartment. Met quite a few great people through groups in www.meetup.com. Been to numerous dinners and potlucks.    Found out I'm not as much as an introvert as I thought. Get me talking and I can bend anyones ear off. 
Not too much in the way of stroke rehab accomplishments.  My apartment has numerous therapy items laying around, reminding me constantly I should be using them. Bosu ball, trampoline, baseball bat, cane, dumbbell, laundry jug, splitting wedge, hand mirror, estim machine, Saeboflex. I did get a bit of biking in and figured out what to do next year.
Having fun again, life is good.
