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.

Doctor and therapist failure to train on shoveling snow

 This was in Minneapolis which definitely gets snow in winter. I can do one handed shoveling with a straight shovel handle but it requires an incredibly strong grip and the load must be even. Currently back at my Moms' in Minnesota  and she has this U attachment that makes it much easier, I grab the upper bend with my right hand and the D handle fits just right against my elbow so I have leverage to throw the snow. I think 4 inches is about the limit before I have take very small scoops. It is impossible to get my left hand into a glove or mitten so doing shoveling the correct way will not work. All because my stroke medical 'professionals' completely failed at curing my spasticity!
