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.

Michael J. Fox Foundation stays innovative, agile

When do we get a stroke association that does the same thing?
ASA or NSA will you answer?

The Michael J. Fox Foundation receives some 800 requests each year to fund research on Parkinson's disease, and the foundation decides on each within weeks. That agility and sense of urgency allows the foundation to have about 250 active research collaborations and projects, CEO Todd Sherer says. "We try to use our flexibility to take on initiatives that large companies and institutions wouldn't be able to accomplish on their own," he said. "Then we can be the glue that allows these projects to happen."
