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.

20,000 blog posts

 When I first started writing this blog 10 years ago as suggested by Peter Levine, my only goal was to beat him in number of views and find and report on useful rehab. Did that in about 1.5 years. The goal changed to document all the ways survivors could be treated better and get a lot more recovery. This would be quite easy to do if we had the strategy and foundation money to followup the thousands upon thousands of promising research trials and translate them into valid stroke rehab intervention protocols.
I can't tell if this blog is doing one damn bit of good, not a single doctor that I know of has even commented  on this. And the presidents of our fucking failures of stroke associations  haven't contacted me.  I'm sure some employees of those associations know about this but are too scared to tell their president.
I know I have at least 10,000 more posts coming since stroke research is never correlated to any stroke strategy. 

10,000 posts took from Sept. 2010 to May 2016

The next 10,000 took from May 2016 to Sept. 2020

  2. Dean,
    That is an amazing accomplishment!
    Every stroke survivor & caregivers should be told about your blog, since it is the best resource available.
    I selfishly hope you keep at it and stay well!
