Does your stroke doctor believe in magic?

I bet they will say no.
But have they said, 'All strokes are different, all stroke recoveries are different'?    Total magical expectation there.
'You will fully recover.'   With only 10% getting to full recovery, that is a whopping lot of magical thinking.

'If you work on movements and exercise, neuroplasticity will help you recover'  They have no explanation for how it works so it has to be magic.
And to think we are actually paying these people for their magical wishes.
