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.

A good day

Got in 12,000 steps  by noon, I was short by 9,000 steps for the week so I'm trying to catch up. Walked in a new natural area, mostly paved but  needed to be careful of the icy patches, the bumpy snow trails were great for strengthening the ankle. Saw a live performance of The Merry Widow opera performed by the Met streamed to a local theater. Never thought I would like opera but it was quite good, in English with subtitles.  Walked a lot more around the Apt. complex this evening. Total of 21,240 steps for the day -10.16 mile. Eventually I will lose the  extra weight I gained by all the social connections of dining and drinking. So far 10 lbs. down.

    I admire you for walking outside in cold weather. I'll walk a bit, but only after it warms up. Cold wind on my left side turns it into stone.

    Admirable way you stick with it and are tough w yourself when you've fallen short.

    I got a Fitbit for Christmas, and then I set really conservative, gradually incrementing goals (yes, I was listening, Jenn) Starting w goal of 1k per day for January, 2k/day February, etc, with the goal of hitting 10k/day by December. January is going just fine, with a few days over 2k, even though it was overkill.
