Paying it forward

 I got slightly criticized for providing questions for your doctor on the first day. While true that lots of stroke patients are not mentally capable of understanding what occurred to them in the first days. The whole point is to ask your doctor, therapists and hospital what they are doing in the first days to get you recovered. Even if you can't ask that question immediately, it should be asked and demand an answer so future stroke patients will have a better chance of recovery than you had.  If WE don't hold the stroke medical world's feet to the fire NOTHING WILL EVER GET BETTER!
