When a man collapsed without warning, completely paralyzed by a massive stroke, the first chapter of his survival was written not in a hospital but on the floor of his home, by his wife. Her instinct to act without hesitation placed him inside the narrow window that modern medicine requires to do its work. His subsequent recovery — remarkable by any clinical measure — stands as a quiet testament to a truth neurologists have long held: in a stroke, time is not a resource to be managed, it is the very substance of outcome.
