I go to live performances of jazz at a bar. I can't properly clap my hands together. But I do have wonderful social connections and the balance therapy is incredibly effective. The protocol: 3 drinks on a high bar stool and then walk to the restroom thru a crowd of people
Various failure points;
- Hand will not stay in the palm up position, due to spasticity.
- Fingers and thumb will not lay flat, due to spasticity.
- Hand will not sweep in mid-air to connect with the good hand, due to dead brain.
All of these failure points should be fixable by any therapist in the world, Just go to the public database of stroke rehab protocols and choose the one with the highest efficacy for the damage diagnosis. This is incredibly simple if we have anyone with brains in stroke leadership. A Nobel prize awaits the leader who follows thru and accomplishes what centuries of stroke persons have failed at.
Damn it all: stroke is easy; 5 steps.
1. Describe the problems exactly.
2. Write thousands of RFPs to researchers to solve those problems.
3. Fund them with foundation grants.
4. Write stroke rehab protocols based on the research.
5. Get the Nobel prize in medicine
A
Nobel Prize awaits. Isn't that enough incentive? Or is this all just
too fucking hard for all these MDs and PhDs working on stroke?
Oops, I'm not playing by the polite rules of Dale Carnegie, 'How to Win Friends and Influence People'.
Politeness
will never solve anything in stroke.
