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.

Elderly Mississippi man murders wife who had stroke, police say

You can blame the stroke doctors for this. They did nothing to stopthe 5 causes of the neuronal cascade of death in the first week.  And then had NO stroke rehab protocols to get to 100% recovery. No hope, no way ahead.

Elderly Mississippi man murders wife who had stroke, police say


An elderly man is accused of shooting and killing his wife in a possible mercy killing, the Clinton Police Department said Wednesday.
The husband was identified as Thomas Ballenger, 70. He is accused of fatally shooting his wife Rebecca Ballenger, also 70, Clinton Police Lt. Josh Frazier said.
The couple had been married for over 40 years.
Frazier said Rebecca Ballenger had a stroke and that Thomas Ballenger told police his wife told him she didn't want to live that way.
Ballenger has been charged with murder and denied bond.
Police responded to a call Tuesday at around 10 p.m. for a report of a shot or shots fired at Woodlands Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center, according to Clinton Police Department spokesman Mark Jones. When officers arrived, they found Rebecca Ballenger dead.
Frazier said Thomas Ballenger used a revolver and shot his wife more than once. Thomas Ballenger surrendered to the nursing staff outside of his wife's room after the shooting, Frazier said.
Police said Thomas Ballenger said he was depressed and felt very guilty about his wife's stroke.
Officials at the Hinds County Jail said there was no one named Ballenger at their facility Wednesday. Frazier said the police department would not be releasing Ballenger's mugshot. When asked if Thomas Ballenger was on suicide watch, Frazier said, "we're keeping a close eye on him."
"This is the saddest crime I've ever worked, Frazier said.
Tuesday night's shooting was the first homicide since 2014, according to Clinton Police Dept. spokesman Mark Jones.
Mercy killings are not allowed in most states, including Mississippi law. However, withholding or withdrawal of "life-sustaining" measures may be permitted in some circumstances.
