Deans' stroke musings: Stroke survivor who fought against all odds to walk again nominated for second award this year

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 survivor who fought against all odds to walk again nominated for second award this year

Awards like this should not have to exist because we have stopped a lot of the dead and damaged neurons by stopping the neuronal cascade of death by these 5 causes. If your doctor and hospital don't recognize the solution(more research needed) to this stroke disability problem you have fucking idiots in charge.

A woman who has fought against all odds to regain her ability to speak and walk following a stroke has been nominated for yet another award for her determination.
Maz Wedgwood, 72, from Barton, has been nominated in the Against All Odds category in the Mail's Community Champions awards for tackling her life-changing condition with a smile on her face.
And this is the second time this year that the inspirational stroke survivor has been nominated for her bravery in her recovery, despite being told by her consultant that she would never walk again.
Just last month, Maz hit the headlines when she was nominated by her personal trainer, Leon Simpson, for the Stroke Association's Life After Stroke Courage Award.
