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.

Putting on pants while camping stroke rehab

You usually want to wear pants all day, during the day for sun protection and at night for coolness. The first day I tried to get my pants on while still in the tent, managed to get both legs in and the waist around my thighs, then got on my knees and tried to stay upright, tuck my shirt into my pants and pull them up all at the same time. After falling over several times I went to the backup plan. Toss the shoes, socks, long sleeve shirt and pants outside the tent. Walk barefoot in my skivvies to the picnic table shelter where I could sit on a bench and easily get dressed. This is all done before the kids start running around  and offend some sensibilities. When camping on canoe trips I use this 3 legged camp chair to get dressed.
