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.

Celebrating World Stroke Day

The only way this should be celebrated is by pointing out all the f*cking failures and problems in stroke.  This awareness campaign is just a way to look like you're doing something rather than actually solving stroke problems. But until the boards of directors change their instructions to the leaders  this won't change. I can only make an assumption that that they really have no intention of helping survivors.

Dear Dean,
This Wednesday, October 29 is World Stroke Day, a campaign established by the World Stroke Organization in 2006. Stand with us throughout the week, as we raise awareness about the 2nd leading cause of death in the world. Remember, stroke does not discriminate—it can happen to anyone, at any age, and at any time. Arm yourself and your loved ones with knowledge about stroke and how to prevent this devastating disease.
Over the next 5 days, help us spread awareness about stroke in these simple ways:
  1. Change your social media profile picture and Facebook cover photo to honor World Stroke Day. Encourage your friends and family to do the same!
  2. Watch and share our new two-part animated video series Stroke: The REALITY—learn about stroke’s devastating impact and how to reduce your risk.
  3. Share our World Stroke Day infographic.
  4. Learn FAST to quickly recognize signs and symptoms of stroke:
