Deans' stroke musings: 'We want to ensure everyone touched by strokes has the help they need'

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.

'We want to ensure everyone touched by strokes has the help they need'

Which is more than you can say for the ASA, NSA or WSO.

SOME of your readers may have watched ITV documentary Churchill’s Secret on Sunday, February 28.
During the summer of 1953 Sir Winston Churchill, who was Prime Minister and in his late 70s, had a devastating stroke which was kept secret from the world.
Sixty years ago little was known about strokes and it was viewed by many health professionals as a sad but untreatable condition.
Despite the efforts of the leading neurologists, Winston Churchill never fully recovered, though he continued in office until 1955.
He sadly died in 1965.
Recent developments in medicine and research have transformed the way stroke patients are treated and today far more people survive strokes, but there is still much more to do to help the 1.2 million people in the UK affected by the condition.
The Stroke Association is a charity and we are proud to have funded pioneering research that has helped to save lives and improve stroke rehabilitation.
We want to ensure everyone touched by strokes has the help they need.
