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.

Nude stroke rehab

Got your attention didn't I. I'm up in northern Minnesota at the Maplelag resort. XC skiing went ok, about 4k today, only fell once going down a slight hill when the groomed tracks disappeared and I no longer can jump around on my skiis to catch myself before falling. The owner collects signs and this one is on the wall. On Sunday I skied 8k, fell three times, twice because the temperature hit 43 softening the snow in the sun, going down hills switching from shade to sun caused me to lose control plowing face forward into the snow. The third time I was skiing on Luckys' Loype, a single track trail, you need to be able to do step turns on this one, the groomed tracks disappear quickly. I sat down and plowed into the woods. Still a lot of fun.

    Wait, didn't you say that you have post-stroke fatigue?! You can x-country ski? It sounds like you have more energy than most non-disabled people. I'm impressed.

    If I sit down during the day I will fall asleep. I have to push myself to stay awake or gets lots of caffeine.

    How funny! It's not the "nude swimming area" that tickles me - it's the "no flaunting."

    I agree with Grace - XC skiing is very impressive.

    I wonder what the objective standard of flaunting is and does it change when viewed by the opposite sex.
