En este episodio nos adentramos en una dimensión tan esencial como olvidada de la recuperación neurológica: la sensibilidad. Exploramos con profundidad la neurofisiología de los sistemas sensoriales, los tipos de sensibilidad, las vías implicadas y los déficits somatosensoriales que pueden aparecer tras un ictus. Hablamos de evaluación clínica y neurofisiológica, de escalas, de estereognosia, de patrones exploratorios, y de la implicación cortical tras una lesión. Abordamos también las principales intervenciones terapéuticas, desde la estimulación eléctrica sensitiva (SAES) hasta el entrenamiento activo sensitivo, repasando la evidencia más actual y las claves para una rehabilitación sensitiva eficaz.

Are We There Yet? Tom Donnan part 2When I was a young child and my family would take a trip somewhere, we would normally drive in a car. And having to sit in the back seat (where you can't see anything)… and in the days when the car air conditioner was known as a 4-60 (four windows down and drive 60 MPH)… it was hot. And it was not unusual for me to start bugging my dad asking, “Are we there yet?” When I had kids of my own and taking trips – I also had to answer that same question from them… Well, today, I'm going to ask this question of my guest. Tom Donnan is back with us today as we discuss Bible prophecy in relation to current events – and do we have some current events happening right now that definitely relate to Bible Prophecy. Amen! This is part two to a great conversation with Tom Donnan!What are your thoughts on this topic and “Are we there yet?” Unveiling corruption at its darkest hour... (youtube.com) Now, don't go writing me your angry letters…I don't read them anyway… I know SOME (and let me emphasize that) – SOME of them are desperate. Yes… but most are not and they are just looking for a free ride and are hear for nefarious reasons. The point, Don, that I'm trying to make and would like your opinion on, is that America right now, at the time of this recording, is 248 years old. Will we collapse as a nation in the near future? Will the Constitution still mean anything in the near future? Democrats Are Showing Their TRUE Colors #trump (youtube.com) We talked about how cities are having to deal with this migrant crisis. There is also the issue of “JOBS” for all of these people. 1. They are not authorized to hold jobs – but yet, they need jobs. 2. That means they will take “any job” – and probably take less pay for it than someone who IS authorized to work here. 3. They are probably being paid UNDER THE TABLE – which means NO TAX DOLLARS… So, just to get to the question, let me summarize what I see… Larger government expenditures to care for these people… who are taking jobs under the table to survive… which means a company can hire, let's just say 2 people for the price of 1 who IS authorized to work here… That person is unemployed… drawing government benefits… The illegals are drawing government benefits… There is no tax dollars coming into the government from either of these people… The government is running up a huge deficit because of this… So the government prints more money to pump into the economy – and that causes inflation for EVERYONE… What are your thoughts on this and - “Are we there yet?” Bidenomics Is Not Working #bidenfail (youtube.com) This situation is just not happening here in the United States. It is happening in other nations as well. And the people are fed up with how it is being pushed on them. As we discussed what is happening here, in the United States, people are upset with this administration and Bidenomics… but it's not just here. Did you see that France… of all places… FRANCE, one of the most liberal nations in the world – has swung RIGHT toward conservatives? France Sees MASS RIOTS After Right Wing Victories, Le Pen WINNING (youtube.com) You know what I'm going to ask… “Are we there yet?” Now, we have the...
Are We There Yet? Tom Donnan part 1When I was a young child and my family would take a trip somewhere, we would normally drive in a car. And having to sit in the back seat (where you can't see anything)… and in the days when the car air conditioner was known as a 4-60 (four windows down and drive 60 MPH)… it was hot. And it was not unusual for me to start bugging my dad asking, “Are we there yet?” When I had kids of my own and taking trips – I also had to answer that same question from them… Well, today, I'm going to ask this question of my guest. Tom Donnan is back with us today as we discuss Bible prophecy in relation to current events – and do we have some current events happening right now that definitely relate to Bible Prophecy. Amen! Let's start with a subject that we always seem to drift towards anyway – and that is how NATURE itself is reflecting the awesomeness of God. That can be in its beauty – but it can also be in its veracity. We can start with the earliest hurricane to hit CAT 5 status in history, Beryl. Naturally, the liberals are claiming “climate change,” but scientists have said it is simply the El Nino and El Nina cycle of warming water. The point I'm making though, regardless of the “natural cause” – is these things are depicted in the Bible as happening in the last days. Do you see this as well? What about the story about the possible solar flares that are increasing in intensity? I saw a story a day or so ago that discussed the core… the actual core of the earth – has now REVERSED is rotation… something that has never happened before. They had noticed it has been slowing for decades, but now, they report it has actually reversed course! They have no idea what is about to happen now! Let's talk about society in general, especially here in the US, but also around the world. 1 Timothy 3 speaks about what it will be like living in the last days… and I think we can see ourselves in this verse, which says, “But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good, treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power. Avoid such people.” Tom, what are your thoughts on this topic and “Are we there yet?” Just look at what has happened to most of the major metropolitan centers of influence in this nation… luxury tourist hotels are closed to the public and turned into housing for illegal migrants. Billions of dollars are being spent by cities (that, by the way don't have billions of dollars to spend), just to pay for these hotels and taking care of these migrants. The Bible is very clear, a house divided against itself will not stand. We are a divided nation right now. We are more divided NOW than in the Civil War. And that is an understatement about the condition of this nation. ALL of the major law enforcement agencies from local to federal are warning of an immenent possibility of a major terrorist attack (bigger than 9-11). Why? Because of allowing open borders and knowing… absolutely KNOWING… that middle aged men from countries with ties to terrorism – are streaming across the border. Most are unaccompanied… and that does not even consider the “gottaway's.” In essence, America has lost it's hedge of protection. CONTACT INFORMATION: Healingthenation1776@gmail.com Six...

The “gods” are Here Tom Donnan How important is it that God's people be armed with the knowledge of the spiritual battle that we are already in the middle of? Even non-believers are beginning to recognize the evil that is going on… Jonathan Cahn put out a video where he went into detail on how the ancient world was exploited by various gods. He explained as how they worshipped these gods, they were actually worshipping demonic forces. Did you see that video? Jonathan Cahn Video: The Return of the gods | Rabbi Jonathan Cahn | LW (youtube.com) We can see the signs of this pagan culture even today, in our society. The evil we are seeing, almost every night on the news, is evidence of demonic influences and even demonic possession. Don't you agree? In Jesus day, He and His followers took on these evil forces head-on and demonstrated the “authority of the believer.” That's why his followers were persecuted to the extent they were because they refused to worship the pagan gods. Do you believe that is what is behind the persecution the Christians are beginning to see happening today? Jesus told us that when a demon is cast out, in Matthew 12:43-45, “When an evil spirit comes out of a man, it goes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it. Then it says, “I'll return to the house I left.” When it arrives, it finds the house unoccupied, swept clean and put in order. It then goes and finds seven other demons worse than itself and all of them come and live there. The last state of the man becomes worse than the first. That is the way it WILL ALSO BE with this evil generation.” Think about it like this… America was settled by Christians seeking a place to worship the Creator of the Universe, and serve as Jesus taught us. All of our laws and foundational documents, etc. were based on Judeo-Christian values. That is why we have been so blessed. We were able to drive any demonic forces and influences from America. They left, roamed the earth, settled in amongst various people groups…and NOW – they have returned, bringing in even worse demonic forces to reoccupy this land. And, as Jesus said, “That is the way it WILL ALSO BE in this evil generation.” I believe this is what we are seeing right now… What do you think? Jonathan Cahn, in his video, described HOW these gods have now returned this nation. He identified a lot of them. Do you think we are actually seeing a “repossession” taking place before our very eyes? Go through some of the demonic forces Jonathan Cahn identified. I believe the chief force was Baal, correct? Jonathan Cahn Video: The Return of the gods | Rabbi Jonathan Cahn | LW (youtube.com) We can identify the beginning of this when God was removed from the public schools back in the 1960's, including the sexual revolution. And the schools have continued to get worse and worse ever since then… In the 1970's, it was abortion. In the 1980's, it was pornography. In the 1990's, it was acceptance of homosexuality. In the 2000's, it was the attack on marriage. And it just continues to degenerate through today… This is the demonic forces behind “wokeism” – do you agree? We have basically become slaves to our technology. This is going to be tool used by the antichrist to control the population as depicted in the Bible, right? Jonathan Cahn also identified the spirit behind this misgendering confusion going on. Did you...
The Decline and Fall of America Tom Donnan In the face of the decline and fall of America, it becomes crucial to discern and confront the spiritual forces that are shaping our world today. This concern extends beyond the realms of believers to encompass non-believers who are now witnessing unsettling changes. The resurgence of ancient demonic spirits, as forewarned in biblical texts, emerges as potential architects behind the unraveling of our culture and the transformative shifts that are being seen in the media. The fabric of today's society and of modern culture bears the imprint of malevolent spirits, exemplified by the proliferation of occult practices and emphasized by spirit of sexuality influencing gender issues. A discernible spiritual battle rages on, marking a need for revival in the name of Jesus. To navigate through these challenges, we must dismantle strongholds, live guided by the Holy Spirit, and unflinchingly invoke the Name of Jesus amidst the backdrop of America's decline and fall. We ARE living, in the last of the last days. To help us review some of the recent things emerging, is our good friend, Tom Donnan. Tom, it's so good to talk with you again as we dive into what I shared in the opening, the “Decline and Fall of America.” Let's start with the main stabilizing force in our country, the Church. The Church has lost its influence in the culture of this nation. One way we can verify that is because of the drastic decline in church attendance. What have you seen on this topic? Mass exodus: Why church attendance is dropping across US (youtube.com) A nation that cannot field an Army to defend its borders or fight to protect this land is truly destined to be overrun by an opposing force. Have you seen the big news story about military recruitment has failed to meet its recruiting goals – again? US Army CUTTING 24 THOUSAND Jobs, Military Has Recruitment CRISIS (youtube.com) There is no doubt that Bidenomics has virtually destroyed the finances of this nation. You can't print, print, print worthless money and continue to flood the economy with it. It generates massive inflation, to the point where the people cannot afford to buy anything anymore. We are there. People cannot pay the credit cards, car loans, house payments, rent, etc. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovXaIFPy-ks When people don't buy anything, companies don't make money – and layoffs result. This tightens the belts of families even more. Have you seen things related to that as well? This is also collapsing the mortgage industry as well. People can't afford to buy houses… which means nobody is selling their houses – and another major sector falls by the wayside. The biggest Mortgage Collapse in US History is happening right now. (youtube.com) In fact, trying to “help the lower class” of wage earners, many states are now mandating minimum wage hikes to $15 per hour and some, like California, are floating the idea of $30 per hour – to work at McDonalds and things like that! The only way a business can counter those kinds of mandates is to raise prices. But then, again, families have to tighten their belts, which means they will just stop going out to eat…
In this super fun, super insightful interview (which we did on a yacht!?), we sat down with Olivia Donnan, VP of Branding Communications at YOTEL, to dive into her career journey and philosophies about how to stand out and build a world-class global brand in hospitality. From her early dreams of becoming an actress to navigating the multicultural nuances of international business, Olivia shares the lessons, challenges, and wins that have shaped her path. Like many of our guests on “How the F**k Did You Get That Job?”, Olivia's education and career path are completely unrelated, and she gives practical advice for those starting out in their career and anxious make their mark early (hint: be patient!). One of our favorite parts of this interview as the candid look at what it takes to build and maintain a strong brand in the uber competitive world of hospitality, and how to maintain that brand's consistency across continents. A great lesson for any budding global marketing executive.
What in the World is Happening Now Tom Donnan pt 2 Tom Donnan is back with us today as we discuss Bible prophecy in relation to current events – and do we have some current events happening right now that definitely relate to Bible Prophecy. Amen! This is Part two of a great conversation with Tom Donnan. Miami Mall video was examined and computer analysis showed the “10 foot tall creature walking in front of the mall” to simply be 3 people walking side by side, filmed from a distance. City wide alert generated a huge police response. Here is the video from a newscast which debunked it as well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFEWkNdtR4w Now, you have shared a video from Pastor John Kilpatrick talked about the emergence of UFO's and aliens months ago in the message “What if?” And this is dealing with the increase in alien appearances. You and I have talked about how the coming announcement will be something to the effect of “We are who you call God,” or something to that effect, right? And how, after the Rapture, these beings will say they “Got rid of the doubters,” or something to that effect… "WHAT IF...?" It's Coming and Be Prepared! | A Prophetic End-Times Message from John Kilpatrick - YouTube Are we placing too much metal in space? Starts at the 6 minutes mark. Is it too late? Did man finally go TOO far! What NOW? - YouTube You see Mass Layoffs coming across America in the near future, don't you? Why is that? Aggressive Layoffs Coming By March, Economy On Last Legs | Danielle DiMartino Booth with David Lin - YouTube You have noticed some things beginning to happen just in the last week or so, basically the last week of January. Can you share what it is you mean by a “Spiritual Change?” Since 1-1-24 there has been a spiritual change. People experiencing demonic attacks has increased. There are those who have thrown open the door to the occult with little to no consequences. But that has change. I received calls from Wyoming, Louisiana and Texas about evil issues. Since 1-1-24 There has been an increase of Godly activity. Conversations with people experiencing God in new and wonderful ways without understanding what is happening to them and what it means. This is happening repeatedly in England I had a chat with a woman from Florida. She was seeing God move through her intercession and she was experiencing the Holy Spirit. However, we chatted over two hours, she was believing things that were outside of Scripture. I invested into her helping to get her aligned with the word of God to gain maximum flow of the Holy Spirit. Tom, we are about out of time. I'd like you to pray with someone right now who may be listening to this and realize, “They need Jesus.” Could you do that right now? Tom, this has been so interesting. How can someone reach out to you to ask a question or get more information? I'll put links to all of this in the show notes below. Folks, our discussion today was not to instill fear – but Faith. Faith in the Name of Jesus. Faith in the Bible. Faith in Biblical Prophecy. Faith that NONE OF THIS is happening by happenstance. None of this is taking God by surprise. But ALL OF THIS is leading to what are called, “The End Times.” If you prayed that prayer with Tom Donnan, reach out and let him know. Go to church. Walk by Faith and not by sight. Don't be moved by what you see

Amen! Lab Grown Brain Connected to a Microchip Recognized Human Voices Let's talk about Neuromorphic Engineering. Where one company, “Brain Chip” is actually commercially selling brain tissue that is connected to a computer chip. I have to ask, how did this get on your radar? What motivated you to research brain tissue computer chips? - Brian tissue connect computer architecture. It is connected with input and output signals. - connected to a supercomputer preform 200 trillion functions per second. - computer needs a lot of energy to operate; human minds require low energy and preform for decades. - Brainowave, and high density computer electrode. - it begins to identify human voices - turning into a brain chip. Lab Grown Brain Connected to a Microchip Recognized Human Voices (youtube.com) You also have an update for us about the “Red Heffers” that are, right now, in Israel, correct? Red Heffer Update: 2024 - The Red Heifer Sacrifice (youtube.com) This lines up with a lot of things happening in Israel right now. And the United Nations is organizing a coalition of countries condemning Israel for their continued response to the attacks on October 7th. Which goes right along with what the Bible says will happen… Israel is alone in the world. We can even see the United States starting to waiver in our support of Israel – at least at the government level. Not good… not good at all. Did you see the uptick in “jellyfish UFO's being spotted?” Tom has done some research and there are some VFX artists that were able to debunk this video and some other videos people have been posting.
