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.

Rome walking stroke rehab

The cruise takes us to the port of Citavecheccio, which means an hour train ride into Rome itself. Since two of us had spent 8 days in Rome last year we bypassed all the major sights. We took a short subway ride to the appropriate spot(Cavour station)  during which my billfold was liberated from my front pocket. Should never have put it there. The subways are so crowded and since I only have one good arm to hang on with that means I don't have a useful hand to protect my pockets. The passport and Euro cash were safely in a neck holster. We wondered around for an hour trying to find the Matisse exhibit and finally walked all the way back to the Termini train station with a wonderful meal and bottle of wine to get us there.
