Current statistics indicate that there are more than 7 million people in the United States who have survived a stroke or brain attack and are living with the after-effects.

The National Stroke Association posts these statistics. But reading the rest of the page there is absolutely nothing on there that will help any of those survivors. They need to remove Stroke from their title, they have absolutely nothing to do with stroke survivors.
So they know nothing about about how to engage neuroplasticity. No references to Pedro Bach-y-Rita. Nothing on

The man with the missing brain

Nothing on neurogenesis.
What the hell good does it do if you state there is a problem but offer no solutions?
And I know the mantra from them is

'This question falls under our organizational guidelines as a medical inquiry and we defer to the medical community to respond. '

F*CKING WORTHLESS.
