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.

Pizza eating failures courtesy of the failures of my doctors and therapists

 Pizza is a great food for social connections but one-handed eating of pizza slices can be disastrous. Ham, pepperoni  and large spinach, plus heavy cheese slices; cause incomplete bite thru so you're pulling the extra out of the slice still in your hand. That causes the extra to flop onto your chin. Normal people use their spare hand to tear it off so it stays on the slice. But because of the failures of my doctor and therapists to fix anything related to my affected left arm/hand I have to accept the embarrassment of pizza on the chin or shoving everything into my mouth to prevent flop failure.
