Boca Doctor gives stroke, TBI survivors new shot at mobility

11. Spend your money on PT and OT, and don't stop. Do more PT/OT yourself.

Don't give this asshole your money. You know you're just chasing a quick fix that will be a disappointment.

Anyone who wants seven hundred bucks to talk to you is a thief.

I spent a year getting a relative back up after a brainstem stroke. It wasn't anywhere near as debilitating as the one your wife had, but it was pretty serious. It took a LOT of therapy. There will not be any running or jumping, but there is reasonably independent living, and that was the goal.

I'd go for electrical stimulation and things of that nature before I went for this snake oil.

There's a website (stroke.net, I think) that has people who have had strokes and caregivers on it; I'd join if I were you and reach out--you may get some ideas and help from people who have dealt with what you're facing.
