Spoonie with Brain Fog #1
Me: Hello, how are you? Stranger: Hi there. I'm doing great, how are you? Me: Okay thanks! How are you? This is sadly a very common occurrence for me. It's like Brain Fog 101.
Student Spoonie
As of right now, my life is consumed with counting spoons and ‘optimally’ distributing them between the following: time to fit in a shower, to make/eat food, to do small bits of university work, time being spoonless on the couch and, of course, time for sleeping at night. I have pretty much dropped all the things I love to do and other aspirations I wish to work towards, in order to live a student life with limited spoons. I can’t wait till this is over... If I even have spoons to get through to graduation.
How To Treat Ischemic Stroke with Stem Cell Therapy?
More than 87% of all stroke cases indicate ischemic strokes.
Surprisingly, more than 185,000 stroke survivors have had another attack within 5 years.
Nearly 610,000 people in the US get a stroke for the first time each year.
3 out of 4 stroke patients are above the age of 65 years.
Mesenchymal stem cells are anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, and regenerative. This helps to repair damaged cells, reduce inflammation, and control the immune system of the body effectively.
MSCs are sourced from high-quality umbilical cord tissues (Wharton's Jelly) and provide effective treatment for post-stroke survivors.
The Future of Stem Cells for Stroke Recovery
Stem cells can restore lost functions of organs and regenerate damaged brain tissues.
MSCs are a revolutionary treatment option for ischemic stroke. It has superior cell differentiation abilities for treating different types of strokes.

Self-renewal abilities of a wide range of cells to improve the cognitive and neurological effects.
Mesenchymal stem cells for ischemic stroke recovery ensure neurogenesis, neuroprotection, and angiogenesis.
It restores the neurological functions of the body and protects against inflammation.
Several neurons die during a stroke attack. The brain's blood supply is cut down. A stroke can even lead to paralysis.
MSCs can easily reach the areas of injury and reduce oxidative stress with their neuroregenerative properties.
Additionally, MSCs can differ between cells such as chondrocytes, neurons, adipocytes, osteoblasts, and glial cells.
Results of Stem Cell Therapy for Ischemic Stroke Treatment
Mesenchymal stem cell-based treatments for post-stroke are innovative and significantly reduce the complications related to stroke. The noteworthy results of this stem cell therapy include -
Improvement in muscle strength
Greater joint strength and mobility
Reduces the signs of paralysis
Enhanced speech and facial actions
Improvement of body balance
Enhanced vision
Accelerated production of chemokines for tissue recovery
Production of new blood vessels within ischemic tissues
Neurogenesis

Trump Is a Chump™ (WSJ Trump Hotels Advertising Edition)
First, let’s stipulate that Donald Trump is the least self-aware U.S. president since post-stroke Woodrow Wilson.
Let’s also stipulate that the Cheeto-in-Chief is more transactional than your neighborhood ATM. As one observer noted, Trump has no standards and no principles – just context.
Even so, this small-space (one-ninth of a page) Trump Hotels ad in yesterday’s Wall Street Journal is about…

Take a different route home in your daily commute as it’s ‘good for your brain’. Anything to disrupt those in-grained habits from becoming more entrenched. Grooves of that vinyl record, Led Zeppelin IV track, ‘When the Levee Breaks’ played so much it has deepened being played hundreds of times. I don’t know, perhaps play something completely different such as Mongolian Throat Singing to hop out of that groove 😉
I know all too intimately of these habitual habits formed or not, good or bad. Months ago I underwent my own neurological experiment taking notice of which foot I lead with walking up & down stairs and being Seattle, there’s a hell of a lot of em. I quickly noticed I always lead with my left foot after years of walking stairs. Why? My right-dominant leg is there as I lower or raise to better balance myself.
I continue the experiment, and after a few months I think I mostly have the new habit. The habit breaks say if I ‘m carrying something fragile or dangerous, in a big hurry, or tired. Since, I started this little experiment, to be conscious to now lead with my right foot and its so hard to do. The experiment is not only for a survivor, but anyone. Realize it’s motor-relearning, having to learn all over again the simplest of tasks everyone takes for granted. I challenge you to try it for even one day. Really tough.
I think of everything I’ve done for 4+ yrs now to [partially] recover. I learn how to walk again, albeit like I’m a drunk gimp. How much of that ‘poor form’ is magnified over time? Why it’s important to realize that a good PT’s advice to slow it down, taking time when you can, paying close attention to your form. So often I’m late to an appointment downtown, where I mostly keep up with others but is this fast sloppy walking just wearing that record groove deeper? I think so. Life so often just gets in the way to ‘slow down’.
Very tough to even begin to convey this to the non-survivor. Every facet of recovery, everything part of the body that was affected likely has to go through the process. All frought with the greatest of frustration. Please don’t take anything for granted.
