Coughing with a spastic arm is not good

 I've had a cold the last couple of days, runny nose and lots of coughing, If I cover my mouth with my right arm the left arm flies across my lap sweeping the laptop or book to the floor. So, the response has become; grab the left hand with the right to stop the upcoming destruction. And since I live alone I don't have to worry about spreading my germs to others.

My therapists and doctors completely failed at informing me of the consequences of having spasticity. Probably because they believed in the stupid and incorrect opinions of Dr. William M. Landau. 

Of course the infamous Dr. William M. Landau thinks spasticity is not worth treating. 

Do you believe in the do nothingism of Dr. William M. Landau on spasticity?  

His statement from here:

Spasticity After Stroke: Why Bother? Aug. 2004

Wonder if he will be singing the same tune after he becomes the 1 in 4 per WHO that has a stroke, will he be satisfied with not getting recovered?
