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.

Paper towel failure and solution

A long time ago I purchased this wooden towel holder not realizing that it is a two handed operation. It requires one hand to hold the top and the other to rip off the sheets. I finally got tired of using one hand to separate the sheets, it always took too long when I needed a paper towel quickly.












 

 

 

 

 

 

So I bought a new one. Screwing the screws in first requires you to start a small indentation which I did with my one-handed John Wesley Powell pocketknife. Started the screw in with a few turns of the screwdriver, then used a small Vise-Grip to set the screw all the way down. I don't have a drill and luckily the cabinet was not solid wood but some cheap composite. The screws do come thru the cabinet but I don't care.


















Absolutely zero help from my therapists on this.  You are pretty much completely on your own to solve all your one-handed problems.
