Brain Disease

Warum unser Gehirn so besonders und enorm leistungsfähig ist? Die Hirnforschung belegt, dass das Gehirn eine gewaltige Lernmaschine ist. Ständig speichert es Informationen. Wie ein rastloser mentaler Staubsauger saugt es Bilder, Worte, Bewegungen, Informationen auf und verwandelt einen Teil davon in das Kurzzeitgedächtnis. Nicht immer bleibt das Wichtigste im Langzeitgedächtnis abgespeichert. In jedem Fall steuert das 1,3 Kilogramm leichte Organ unsere Handlungen und Gefühle.

For the first time in my life, I didn't need to pretend, I didn't need to be tough: I only needed to be honest. "I have cerebral palsy. I walk funny and my balance is bad. I fall a lot.

She smiled. "It sounds like a service dog could be great for you."

For sure - this is the cancer book for rednecks! Only someone who survived boot camp would even understand. Twenty-six years of brain cancer makes me infinitely qualified to speak on survival.

Are you or a loved one grappling with memory loss or dementia? "Nurturing Cognitive Resilience in Dementia" provides the essential tools to bolster cognitive abilities and offers a beacon of hope. Dive into a guide that illuminates the path to a brighter, healthier future.

For decades, researchers have chased a pharmaceutical cure for memory loss.

Why is this happening? And what does it mean for brain health in the future?

Called a "groundbreaking masterpiece" by Dr. Gregory O'Shanick, medical director emeritus of the Brain Injury Association of America, this is the gold edition of the unabridged audiobook of the critically acclaimed memoir The Day My Brain Exploded, which tells the story of Ashok Rajamani, a first-generation Indian American who had to relearn everything about life after a full-throttle brain hemorrhage at 25. With humor and insight, he describes the events of that day (his brain exploded just before his brother's wedding!) as well as the long, difficult recovery period. In the process he introduces listeners to his family - his principal support group as well as a constant source of frustration and amazement. Irreverent, coruscating, angry, at times shocking, but always revelatory, his memoir takes the listener into unfamiliar territory, much like the experience Alice had when she fell down the rabbit hole. That he lived to tell the story is miraculous; that he tells it with such aplomb is simply remarkable.
