    Bravo young lady!!!! Bravo for your love for humanity and your blessings of intelligence. I am so proud of you!!! God Bless your work and your family and your support staff!!! The very famous Jimmy Houston’s wife of 57 years had a massive stroke 3 weeks ago today. They live in Oklahoma. Please pray for her recovery folks. They are some of the finest people on earth. Thanks in advance and praising our God for a world wide revival and healing for those in need. ☀️💜🎣🎣🎣

      I can imagine how saddening it is to see a loved one suddenly ill like this. Please use these examples as teachable moments and warnings to younger persons to adopt better choices in daily life: e.g., what they eat and avoid; what they drink and don't; wholesome physical activity (nothing cheaper and simpler than a brisk walk every day, enjoying fresh air and the wonder of God's garden/Creation). Perhaps, if more people visited the sick and the elderly and saw the end of persons' choices (those that did the wrong things for their health and lose decades of healthy years versus those that did make good habits and live to 100 years or more with all their functions intact), they would be inspired to choose what promotes lifelong wellness and to avoid the temptations and distractions that abound.

    thank you for this speech. it shows how messed up our society, medicine and research is. "Life without stroke" should play a greater role than "life after stroke". But that is exactly the problem of medicine and monetarily driven research. Fighting symptoms instead of causes. If you look at the numbers, since when brain strokes increase, you should rather research lifestyle, nutrition and environmental factors.

    This is a subject close to my heart. Yes, this is a wonderful development but it too is years down the road and will be very expensive. We need to deal with NOW. My dad had his first stroke at 54. The vessel that was blocked it should have killed him. It didn't. The MD said to get him a babysitter! Our family MD had some kind of connections because he got my dad into a program that had a waiting list of 1 year, in 2 weeks. The sooner the better!! Sadly not everyone receives that. We need more and more programs as the population grows older. He came back so much further than anyone gave him credit to be able to do in the beginning. Sorry, I dont think you can necessarily predict how someone is going to do. There are so many other factors than just an MRI. That's all I can say from my little soapbox because I could go on for pages. If there are folks out there who are in the middle of this, my heart is with you. Keep fighting and don't take no for an answer.

    The best strategy is prevention, education, and promotion, rather than rehabilitation, curative, and palliative approaches. Going down the pharmaceutical path is extremely expensive (from development to approval to manufacture and delivery, not to mention the high cost of errors, misuse, overprescription, and side-effects).

      Brent, I am a stroke survivor....and maybe not typical...but they have not been able to find an explanation for why the blood clot was able to reach my brain. So, prevention, education and promotion wouldn't have done any good.

    • @brentshuffler1234
      @brentshuffler1234 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      @@lisadesrosiers2261 The opposite conclusion is true: of course, they would have done much good. With appropriate education about wellness, nutrition, and lifestyle, and daily prevention, you could avoid harmful clots altogether. Whether they affect your eyes, your brain, your lungs, or your extremities, such clots (along with heart-attacks, hypertension, diabetes, obesity, and strokes) are only symptoms of the cumulative results underlying habits and choices . . . That is why we must emphasise daily good choices and health-promoting habits: e.g., in every meal, in everything that we cook (and how), in choosing to be more physically active and less sedentary, etc. On that last point, one of my cousins used to be very health-conscious and physically active but once she stopped exercising and began to be lazy about her dietary habits, she became overweight instead of fit, and developed clots in her lungs in her late 30s and early 40s.

    Samantha, you mentioned in the first minute or so, that they were eating icecream and other dairy products every day. Did you not notice your grandparents' dietary patterns and lifestyle habits? Sedentary lifestyles, fried foods, junk, added sugars, added salts, artificial ingredients, mass-produced dairy products, meats exposed to antibiotics and manufactured fertilisers and feeds, etc., can all contribute to poor health-outcomes.

      While clearly these are all contributing factors let us not forget that she was not saying she was trying to first change the lifestyle of the region noted to be the Stroke Belt of America not the habits of the elderly. She is proposing the potential for improved treatment and ways to get that treatment to the people who need it. I find your comment insensitive. While any after the fact armchair quarterbacking may seem valuable to you. It is merely blaming rather than accepting what is and finding solutions.

      @@demetricadement1138 I have lived long enough to see too many premature funerals (including several of my close friends and relatives); so this is personal and not merely backseat or armchair theorising. Not being insensitive, but rather facing reality, I also have come to realise that not everyone can be helped (and/or even wants to be helped) when the damage is already done. That is why the focus needs to be on early education, prevention, and daily habits from school-years in order to minimise the scourge of preventable, N.C.D.s plaguing our elderly, challenging our medical systems, and filling hospital-beds. It is like the simple choice of daily rinsing, brushing and flossing for optimal oral hygiene . . . or paying 5 to 6 figures for drugs and surgery . . . after knowingly eating and drinking the wrong things every day for decades.

    • @murielhart7340
      @murielhart7340 ปีที่แล้ว

      This is a fair concern and should be considered! As our healthcare system continues to encourage and fund futuristic, therapeutic interventions, we need the structural stability to increase patient access to care. The cost our current healthcare and insurance systems place on patients is astronomical compared to other countries who do have socialist societies and national health insurance. Affordability should be a high priority for new treatments, and I agree the change needs to be made on a larger, policy-based scale!
