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.

The Type of Smile That Helps Start New Relationships

With all the relationships that survivors will lose your doctor and psychologist should be providing you with new ways to make friends.

People feel emotionally close to others displaying this type of smile.
A ‘Duchenne smile’ is a powerful way of striking up a new relationship, a new study finds.
People are highly tuned to the Duchenne smile, which involves upturned lips and crinkly eyes.
And they can easily spot a fake smile, which tends to involve only the mouth and not the eyes.
The research tested how much people are aware of each other’s emotions, whether negative or positive.
It found that people were more aware of positive emotions in other people than negative.
It also found that a genuine smile was a strong sign of cooperation and affiliation.
People felt emotionally closer to strangers who showed positive emotions.
The positive emotion that was particularly attractive was awe.
Dr Belinda Campos, who led the research, said:
“Our findings provide new evidence of the significance of positive emotions in social settings and highlight the role that positive emotions display in the development of new social connections.
People are highly attuned to the positive emotions of others and can be more attuned to others’ positive emotions than negative emotions.”
The study was published in the journal Motivation and Emotion (Campos et al., 2015).
