Deans' stroke musings: Stroke Challenge, Your Way

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.

Stroke Challenge, Your Way

Another total waste of resources on the part of the National Stroke Association. Solve some fucking stroke problems instead of this meaningless fundraising crap. Betsy, you can do much better.
Stroke Challenge, Your Way

Dear dean,

Did you know you can participate on a Stroke Challenge team without running a marathon, without traveling many miles to an event, and without a fundraising minimum?

Stroke Challenge, Your Way allows you to do just that—participate in YOUR WAY! And, there’s still time to get involved this year. Many communities have popular M onster Races, Turkey Trots or Jingle Bell Jogs that are a great opportunity for walkers and runners of all abilities to get out and celebrate their favorite holiday while sharing the stroke message. Don’t forget to invite your friends and family to join you!

It’s easy to get started today—visit our Stroke Challenge, Your Way page for details on getting started.

Join a community of teammates and volunteers and you’ll receive:

Access to National Stroke Association’s personal fundraising website to set up your online fundraising page
Dri-fit Stroke Challenge team t-shirt (when you raise $500 or more)
One-on-one fundraising support from National Stroke Association staff
Online social media group to connect with other Stroke Challenge team athletes

Questions? Contact Betsy at 303-754-0931 or events@stroke.org.

Sincerely,
