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.

Trail clearing again

I spent an hour out on the trails clearing branches with my 14 inch pruning saw. Got totally exhausted in 1 hour, luckily I was only 1/4 mile out when exhaustion hit and clonus was present in both legs. Stumbled back in and collapsed on the couch.  This year I'm going to keep at this all summer until it's completed, last year I waited until Sept. to start clearing and never got it finished before the snow flew.  I can't get to the back 2 loops because water is covering the trails.
Last night a friend introduced me to the driveup window at Culvers and got some frozen custard. Bad idea, now I'll use that as a treat for myself which means I'll need to do even more exercise.

  1. I too have an annual battle with our main path. It's weeding out invasive plants to make the path visible, nothing that requires more than a Japanese hoe. This year I decided it would be a Sunday project (of course, it's cold and rainy today, with guests coming to dinner, so I haven't been out there today) to make progress a few feet at a time; then maintenance would be removing anything new every time we take the path down to the lower yard. Simple, right? Until crab grass sprouting week. Wish me luck.
