65 - Oh well, 15 years of disability so far; 35 years to go

 I expect NOTHING  in the next 35 years that will allow me to recover. With NO STROKE STRATEGY AND NO STROKE LEADERSHIP nothing will happen.

Your children and grandchildren will be screwed if they have a stroke, they will recover as poorly as you have.

Damn it all: stroke is easy; 5 steps.
1.  Describe the problems exactly. There are tens of thousands of pieces of research already hinting at solutions, just need followup.
2.  Write thousands of RFPs to researchers/MIT grads to solve those problems.
3.  Fund them with foundation grants.
4.  Write stroke rehab protocols based on the research.
5.  Get the Nobel prize in medicine.
