Deans' stroke musings

Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain!Just think of all the trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 13% effective). I have 301 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.

What this blog is for:

Shortly after getting out of the hospital and getting NO information on the process or protocols of stroke rehabilitation and recovery I started searching on the internet and found that no other survivor received useful information. This is an attempt to cover all stroke rehabilitation information that should be readily available to survivors so they can talk with informed knowledge to their medical staff. It's quite disgusting that this information is not available from every stroke association and doctors group.

Cross-country skiing - Yeah

We got 5 inches of snow in the last storm which was wonderful because  we were losing our snow cover for the third time this winter.  Skied for about 2 hours, reversed one of the loops to not have to go on a very slight downhill, right now downhills with no groomed tracks are not possible. The only casualty was my nose, I was trying to duck under some small branches not realizing than one had thorns. It caught on my nose and since I was balanced on skis with my good hand holding my ski pole to keep me upright, I now have 2 pock marks and a one inch scratch across my nose, I bled like a stuck pig for a while. But it was fun.
