The theme of this podcast episode is the disabling condition of locked-in state. I discuss the typical causes that lead to locked-in state, particularly large strokes in the brainstem, and highlighting cervical dissection is an important mechanism for this. I also review its main clinical manifestations, noting how blinking and eye movements are often the only preserved motor functions, along with the emotional burden it imposes on patients and their families.I particularly highlight the uncertainty that dominates the early stages when the patient is aware, but family and healthcare personnel assume they are brain dead. Similarly harrowing are the discussions that flavour the management about continuing supportive treatment, and the fearful thoughts that dominate the victims' experience, from the fear of dying from the condition, or being taken off life support. The podcast also explores the investigations of locked-in, and the acute care which typically requires ventilation and support of all vegetative functions.Other themes the podcast covers are the devices that enable people in locked-in state to communicate, the rehabilitation which is usually slow and long-term, and outcome which is often poor. I illustrate the issues I cover in the podcast with such memoirs as The Diving Bell and the Butterfly by Jean-Dominique Bauby, Locked-In by Richard Marsh, Blink by Sandra Nett, A Return to Duty by Clodagh Dunlop, In the Blink of an Eye by Mia Austin, and Ghost Boy by Martin Pistorius.

Click here to try it out!Welcome back to Bad Dads Film Review! Today, we're embarking on a unique cinematic journey as we explore our Top 5 Point-of-View (POV) scenes in film and television. POV shots offer audiences a first-hand experience of the action, making for some of the most immersive and memorable moments in storytelling. After our countdown, we'll delve into the thrilling sci-fi action of Edge of Tomorrow and the playful perspectives of Rugrats.Top 5 POV Scenes in Film and Television:Hardcore Henry (2015) - Almost the entire film is a POV masterpiece, but one standout scene involves a high-adrenaline chase sequence that fully immerses viewers in the protagonist's frantic escape from numerous adversaries. The seamless integration of action and perspective makes this a top pick.Lady in the Lake (1947) - This classic film noir is shot entirely from the POV of the private detective protagonist. The scene where he discovers a body is particularly impactful, as viewers experience the shock and realization directly through his eyes.Enter the Void (2009) - This film uses the POV technique to express the disembodied state of a spirit wandering through Tokyo. The continuous float-over scenes through the neon-lit cityscape are both disorienting and mesmerizing, pushing the boundaries of narrative cinema.Peep Show (TV Series, 2003-2015) - This British comedy series is known for its extensive use of POV shots, giving viewers a literal view into the minds of the main characters. One memorable scene involves Mark, one of the protagonists, at a job interview, providing both humor and pathos from his direct perspective.The Diving Bell and the Butterfly (2007) - This film tells the true story of Jean-Dominique Bauby, paralyzed except for one eye. The scenes shot from his POV, particularly when communicating via blinking, are profound and deeply personal, highlighting the power of POV in conveying internal experiences.Edge of Tomorrow utilizes POV shots effectively, especially in the battle scenes where Major William Cage (Tom Cruise) relives the same day repeatedly. Each reset gives the audience a direct view of his growing desperation and skill, enhancing the film's intense action and sci-fi narrative. Rugrats While not traditionally known for POV shots, Rugrats often employs a low-angle perspective that mimics how toddlers might view the world. This approach is cleverly used to make everyday settings appear larger and more adventurous, encapsulating the show's charm and appeal to its young audience.Today's episode promises an exciting exploration of POV scenes across different genres and formats. Join us as we dive into these films and shows, experiencing first-hand the power of this immersive technique. Whether it's the intense action of Edge of Tomorrow or the playful world of Rugrats, there's a lot to appreciate and discuss.

Dans cet épisode, Aude vient nous parler du handicap en orthophonie. Elle nous évoque ici ce qui se joue dès sa première rencontre avec le patient porteur de handicap et ses parents, et le défi qu'elle se lance à chaque fois: restaurer la communication en partant du niveau de l'enfant.

In this episode, I reflect on Jean-Dominique Bauby's memoir, The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, focusing particularly on (and reading a large portion of) the chapter titled "Through a Glass, Darkly." (I also talk a little bit about the origin and meaning of that strange phrase.) Bauby had a massive stroke in 1995, at the age 43, and as a result was totally paralyzed (except for his left eyelid) and rendered mute. After exploring his memoir, I then totally change gears and talk about Russell Brand, by way of really talking about civil discourse, or what Dr. Robert Nash calls "moral conversation." I discuss a 1996 article that Nash wrote on the topic and which still very much applies to the modern day.

What's it like to lose your own body?'The Diving-Bell And The Butterfly' by Jean-Dominique Bauby is a short memoir describing life with locked-in syndrome. It's a mix of personal recollections before his life altering stroke and daily hospital trivialities afterwards. He focuses on the hardships of being trapped within a mute body but the joy of unlocking his mind.I summarised the book as follows. "A complex series of emotions arise whilst reading. Heartbreak, mirth, horror & fascination all alter quite rapidly due to the small chapters. It is written in that journalistic editorial style so never gets too deep on anything, also understandable because of the way he had to 'write' the book. Ultimately it's a tragedy and a reminder to enjoy what you have."I hope you have a fantastic day wherever you are in the world.

Odds and Ends: Look, I know we talk over each other a lot normally, but this time it wasn't our fault; we talk stealth games and how they're, well, not for us, exactly; Nick read the newest installment of one of his favorite book series and gives a horror classic a rewatch; T.J. saw a few new horror flicks and finished the Hellraiser franchise; can you tell that we recorded this in October? Feature Film: We take a look at The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, based on the autobiographical book of the same name by Jean-Dominique Bauby. It follows Jean-Do (obviously), who gets locked-in syndrome and has to learn to live with it, eventually writing a book about it (obviously). More uplifting than you'd think, we promise!

I know you've probably been thinking, "Hey, I've got good excuses not to do that thing I've always wanted to do.  Like burning down a cop station, or writing a book."  Well we're here to tell you that your excuses are bullshit!  Here is the story of Jean-Dominique Bauby, the author of "The Diving Bell and the Butterfly", who wrote the ENTIRE novel with the use of one eyelid due to his very rare locked-in syndrome.  If he can do it, so can you!Now go out there and give your father a reason to talk about you at work again.

In this special edition of Talking Out Your Arts we talk to the creative team behind Shock Therapy's latest show, Locked In. Sam and Hayden chat with director Veronica Neave and performer Hsin-Ju Ely about the inspiration behind the work, their own professional backgrounds and the process of task based devising and fusing theatre and contemporary dance. Locked In is a multidisciplinary, physical performance exploring human connection, communication and our sensory and extrasensory experience of the physical world.Locked In follows the experience of a man who is a prisoner inside a useless body and his wife who cares for him at his bedside. The scene shifts between the harsh and painful reality of the hospital bed and the vibrant, heightened reality of his internal World. It takes its inspiration from two true stories “Ghost Boy” by Martin Pistorius and “The Diving Bell and the Butterfly” by Jean-Dominique Bauby who both shared their experiences of living with Locked-In Syndrome in memoir.This season of Locked In was supported by Queensland Theatre and is showing in the Diane Cilento Studio at Queensland Theatre between the 1st-11th Dec, 2021.

Imaginez un instant que vous ne puissiez plus bouger aucune partie de votre corps, à l'exception de votre paupière… Cligner de l'œil est à peine perceptible, mais c'est aussi un geste qui peut avoir une signification profonde et merveilleuse, si c'est le seul mouvement dont notre corps est capable. Aujourd'hui, je vous parle de l'histoire fascinante de Jean-Dominique Bauby, l'histoire vraie d'un homme qui est complètement paralysé à la suite d'une attaque. Son cerveau est intact, et il ne peut bouger que sa paupière gauche, qui devient son seul moyen de communiquer. Jean-Do, comme ses amis l'appellent, menait une vie active et normale, jusqu'au jour où, par une surprise du destin, une attaque change sa vie à jamais. Après de nombreuses tentatives infructueuses, son orthophoniste Henriette parvient à communiquer avec lui : elle lui dit l'alphabet, et en réponse, il bouge le seul muscle qui fonctionne encore dans son corps. Dès qu'elle dit la lettre qu'il veut utiliser pour former un mot, il cligne de l'œil. Passé un temps de frustration, il s'habitue à cette technique et décide d'écrire un livre intitulé Le scaphandre et le papillon, un livre captivant et émouvant qui a été littéralement écrit en clignant de l'œil. Jean Dominique Bauby est un homme admirable, et un exemple pour nous tous, qui nous montre que nous sommes capables de grandes choses quelles que soient les circonstances.

You May Have Heard Of The Sultan Of Swat, But Did You Know He Inspired The Word "Ruthian?" Welcome to April 27, 2021 on the National Day Calendar. Today we celebrate amazing stories and the Sultan of Swat.  Tomorrow is National BraveHearts Day.  John: Aye, “Every man dies, not every man really lives!” No John we're not talking about the movie, this is the organization that helps kids with cancer and their families to find the best resources in their time of need.  Visit braveheartsforkids.org to find out how you can help. It's been said that we all have a story to tell. But none has ever been told in quite the way of Jean-Dominique Bauby. Jean-Do, as he was known, was a famous French writer and editor. In 1995, he suffered a stroke that left him awake but unable to move, a condition known as locked-in syndrome. The only part of his body he could control was his left eye. Somehow, simply by blinking, he was able to dictate an entire story by pointing out letters. This took approximately 200,000 blinks and gave us the book The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, in which he talks about his life and the condition that left him in this state. On National Tell a Story Day, let your own story take flight.  You never know who you may inspire! The word "ruthian" is used to describe a sports feat that is so incredible, it almost seems impossible.  The word is a tribute to the legendary Babe Ruth, who set the bar so high that everyone who came after is compared to him.  In 1920, when he joined the New York Yankees, the record for home runs in a season was 27.  That season he hit 54.  Over the next 14 years, he led the league in home runs 12 times.  And because of his all or nothing style, he also led the league in strikeouts 5 times as well.  The Sultan of Swat was honored on April 27, 1947 before a crowd of 60,000 with his very own National Day. He spoke briefly to the crowd, though he was already battling cancer.  On National Babe Ruth Day, we celebrate a true American icon, who taught us to go big or go home.  I'm Anna Devere and I'm Marlo Anderson.  Thanks for joining us as we Celebrate Every Day.

In the earlier part of this book, we saw that out of Pandora's box came all the evils of the world. This was Zeus's “gift” to the wise, beautiful girl who had everything already. In the story, it was meant to be an act of revenge, but in both Frankl's and Zupan's case, the “evil” was really a powerful force for good in their lives, one way or another. It's curious how many people who've experienced profound loss and change would have it no other way—and they certainly wouldn't choose to go back and live a more mediocre life! Jean-Dominique Bauby is another example, and you may already be familiar with his story if you've watched the movie The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, or read the book that inspired it. At the young age of forty-three, Bauby experienced what many of us have only glimpsed in our nightmares: he suffered a stroke and fell into a coma that left him, twenty days later, utterly unable to speak, or to move his arms or legs. He could not even move his mouth.

This week's podcast saw an unexpected turn to economics, as Alex does her best to explain what is being lauded as the democratisation of finance, the ongoing battle between Reditters and the hedgefund giant, Melvin Capital. We've attached some links below for those of you who are still confused and need Trevor Noah pretending to be Margot Robbie to explain. Rhiannon has been reading the memoir of Jean-Dominique Bauby, written with the blinking of his eye, as he chronicles life with locked-in syndrome and we discuss the nuances of transcription. Alex has been reading Maggie O'Farrell tell her life story, beautifully and tangentially, through 17 brushes with death. It reminds us, just as the moribund awareness of death that Covid has brought to the world, of the importance of living life fully. Alex has also been reading Ann Patchett's The Dutch House and discusses how the injustices of fairy tales - of evil stepmothers and privilege ripped away from youth - still leave her seething with anger. Meanwhile, Rhiannon's book, What Red Was, provokes another kind of rage as it details the impact of rape on the life of a young woman and the ramifications of silence and speaking out. Finally, we discuss Meghan and Harry's baffling new podcast, featuring a delightful debut from their young son, Archie. Their podcast features snippets of celebrities detailing their lockdown lives and who doesn't want to know what Elton John and Brené Brown have been up to! Content Warning: rape and sexual assault.

Hay historias increíbles de tenacidad y superación personal, así como de motivación cuyo ejemplo vital sirve de auténtica inspiración para saber hasta dónde llegan los límites y las capacidades humanas. Retos difíciles para aumentar nuestras ganas de conseguir metas o superar obstáculos. Entre esas personas destacan los asombrosos ejemplos de Hellen Keller (sordomuda y ciega cuyas peripecias nos contará David Sentinella), el músico de jazz Django Reinhardt (del que nos hablará Juan Ignacio Cuesta), el futbolista brasileño Arthur Friedenreich (que nos relatará Carlos Canales), la pintora mexicana Frida Kahlo (Marcos Carrasco nos dirá como superó sus problemas físicos), el deportista Ramón Arroyo, un Iroman a pesar de su Esclerosis Múltiple (Jesús Callejo nos contará su historia) o de la matemática escocesa Mary Somerville (que nos resumirá Carmen Fernández). Además, contaremos con el increíble testimonio de Irene Villa (autora de “Los ochomiles de la vida”) una auténtica atleta de la vida, y de David Cuevas (autor de “Ella sonrió para que tú no llores”) sobre el emotivo caso de Olivia. Y, por último, Pepa Llausas nos recordará el argumento de la película “La escafandra y la mariposa”, basada en la vida de Jean-Dominique Bauby. 

When Julian Schnabel decided to make a film out of of Jean-Dominique Bauby's autobiography The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, he was taking on a radical film making challenge that was both technically difficult and emotionally challenging: the story follows Bauby himself as he writes the book - even though he had been completely paralyzed by a massive stroke in the prime of his life. Join us as we look at the unusual visual and storytelling techniques employed to put the viewer inside Bauby's first-person experience - and how watching this film played very differently for us in the time of COVID-19!

I discuss the connection between perceiving lack of variety in food made from scratch and feeling miserable and bored under lockdown, despite having access to all the world's art, music, literature, and culture ever recorded and more material abundance than kings only a few generations ago, despite our material abundance being only slightly less than a few months ago.Here are the notes I read from for this episode:Yesterday recorded episode with Rob and my stepfatherTalked about food variety, said mine lacked varietyOnly tried three timesPeople always see theirs as varied, others as notPeople say I don't like Chinese or Indian, billions, huge varietyI see McDonald's and Taco Bell as sameCount Chocula versus Froot LoopsI made something with broccoli versus zucchini or cauliflower as differentI see industrial food as the salt, sugar, fat, convenience treatmentAdd sugar versus add salt, people see as different, but to me corn flakes and Fritos are basically the sameSupermarket carries same things year-round. Seems like variety because at any given moment lots of choicesBut once the prime pleasure becomes salt, sugar, fat, convenience, same to me.Because there's the raw flavor, which can differ, but we've reduced that variety to monocrops so only a few varieties of mango here, despite abundance in nature, and zero radishes for most peopleTo me variety among apples is huge, which I cherishGerman beer law -> abundance and just local ingredients is huge compared to their fourPeople lived since dawn of our species on local ingredientsWhen did we become so entitled that we should get anything we want whenever, wherever?What's so bad about not having berries every damn day?A farmer nearby wants to provide food for me and youInstead a large part of your money goes to Saudi Arabia for fuel, Madison Avenue for advertising, Wall Street for finance, and Venezuela for farmer now not feeding their peopleSo my parents, who have lived here for over a decade, say there's nothing available local this time of yearIt's like someone who played loud music their whole lives to deaf saying there's no bird songsThe human aspect is important to me. I would probably eat meat, which until just before this time of year would be our option, and we'd cherish it, not take it for granted and ship from all over the worldThen treat with salt, sugar, fat, convenienceSo no, I don't consider Filet-o-Fish as different than a burger, nor Taco Bell as different from McDonald's, Olive Garden, etcThey all treat the raw ingredients as commodities.I want to treat them as a painter treats paints on a palette or a musician treats notes on a scale. A piano has 88 keys. A trumpet three valves.No variety?Let's get to bigger picture.I've also come to see our educational system as equally tone deafSome will see history as completely different subject than economicsOr even humanities as different than scienceEven there, most humanities people will see math and physics similarMost science will see history and philosophy as similarTo me, if they all teach the same skills of reading, listening, taking notes, analyzing how they teach to analyze, but not to learn their own values and create own skills, teaching the same complianceThat most Americans or people in East and West, when confronted with new problem, can't helpMandela, in prison 27 years, lived more free in 10x10 foot cell with forced labor than people today.How do I know? Because he created his happiness despite few raw ingredients, yet people today with much more comfort, convenience, and variety feel depressed and bored.I learn from Thoreau, who lived off the land. Read Walden and Civil Disobedience. People today miss the point by saying he interacted with people. He found that being put in jail for not paying taxes to avoidsupporting slavery and an unjust war made him more free.People who emerge from our educational system learn dependence, not independence. Rob complains about system and as best I can tell spends his time in solitude trying to find how someone is causing his problems rather than appreciating nature that no matter how we try to dominate it, will never go away nor be weaker than us.With zero evidence constructs a world view that Chinese labs were trying to hurt him. Mandela learned to relate with and help the people imprisoning him, realizing the problem wasn't the people, but the systemPeople make themselves depressed, despondent, angry, and such unable to apply their compliance and analysis to understand a situation beyond what school taught.Victor Frankl lived a life of more happiness and bliss in Auschwitz, or Jean-Dominique Bauby, the guy from The Diving Bell and the Butterfly who suffured a stroke that led to him devoid of voluntary control of any muscles except his left eyelid and who wrote a book that became a bestseller and a movie that won awards, He did it by connecting with the people around him.They lived more variety and happiness than people today who want to riot when they only have access to all the food in the world, all the world's knowledge, video to anyone and everyone, all the art, music, literature, movies, ever recordedAs well as the tools for themselves to recreate those works or even make their ownSo go ahead and call my bowl of cereal one day with a bartlett pear and the next with an anjou pear lacking variety while your Wheatiesdifferent than your Spaghetti-os, which I see as the sameWhile you complain, plan to riot against people suggesting you live with slightly less material abundance than yesterday, by your own prideful boasting greater than kings of only a few generations ago, and sink into depression and rageMiss out on seeing that the same process happens with travel as with food. Just as they industrialize food to produce what superficially looks like variety but beneath the surface is monotony, people's actual experience of Italy versus China have become as different as different sections of Disney World, while they can't see the nuance between going on a bike camping trip versus spending a week to learn bike mechanics. Or they can't see that spending a week on a meditation retreat might change their lives more, despite probably less emissions, than crossing another item off a bucket list that is actually less photogenic than the million pictures on the net, that they degrade by going and also degrade where they came from.Or even as my stepfather describes meeting the people or the land in faraway places, while missing out that his very own childhood createdthe same results by going places on foot, miss out that the variety and diversity of people is everywhere.My greatest recent vacation was the day, just to see if I could, I got on my rowing machine and rowed a marathon---that is 26.2 miles.You would say I didn't leave my apartment and with disdain say I missed seeing Macchu Piccu or some other thing beyond my physical horizon, while I found myself, physically, emotionally, and made myself more able, more creative, less needy, physically, emotionally,intellectually.It wasn't just a day but a journey, since a month earlier I had rowed half a marathon for the first time, that feat a couple months after seeing people do it during the crossfit games, which I found researching a guest on my show who won the crossfit games after winning a gold medal in the Olympics, whom I met from another guest on the podcast from several months earlier who had won the Americas Cup, whom I met from learning to sail, which I learned to cross the Atlantic because I challenged myself not to pollute by not flying.While most Americans seem unable to put two and two together to see the opportunity to create the joy, happiness, bliss, community, andconnection that someone the Nazis tortured, that Apartheid tortured, and whose stroke deprived of voluntary control created.You think they're dead. Some of you probably think they're dead white males, as one entitled student described my heroes including Mandela, MLK, and Gandhi. I find them more alive than probably you find alive most of your Facebook connections including possibly your spouse, as Rob tells me many people are looking to divorce as they meet their partners more.So go help bankrupt your local farmers, saying they can't provide you with food in the winter and help support despotic regimes and a system making more despotic regimes, lying to yourself that you aren't contributing to itAnd lament that after the vaccine everything will return to normal despite connecting with people around you more, as the guy I mentioned to Rob that my step-father and I talked to yesterday told of finally learning that his son was languishing in school, but flourished when his own father actually spent time with him.His father said he wouldn't go back to the old way.He could have learned about his son any time. Why didn't he? He was busy. He had time for things not his son but not his son.Compliance-based education may have resulted in a child getting an A, but not knowing his father, or rather knowing his father doesn't have time for him but does put him in a place that bores him.Teaching below him more likely led to him getting a low grade, not high, less factual understanding which nobody cares about anyway, and shoved down learning experientially value, meaning, and purpose, connection, family, ability, creativity, initiative, and what makes life abundant.Now he has less, but he's finding more, he's creating more.He says, as you have the capacity to, that he would have changed earlier, had he known.Reverting back to before means you are passively accepting the compliance and impotence that supports those regimes, keeps you stupid however vaunted your degrees and able to regurgitate information but not tell the difference between radish varieties to where you call salads with two different varieties lacking varietyAnd you would have reacted as I would on mentioning putting pears in cereal, that I won't because pears' flavors are so nuanced and delicate that I would rather eat my oats plain in order to savor the pearsExcept when they're in peak season and so abundant and cheap that I feel richer than a king when I indulge in them, appreciating the abundance of nature, not the scarcity of soul in your supermarkets and convenience restaurants, however crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and your prepared restaurant meals full of pleasure bereft of feeling.Now watch your farmer sell his land and pay some Saudi prince while you make yourself powerless to love and spend time with your child when restrictions decrease and you can do what you want.Go complain and use your compliant, entitled dependence to turn greater material abundance and prosperity into emptiness of meaning and purpose and feel superior to my walking four miles to meet a guy in person who can tell me where my local farmers will sell me a rutabaga you wouldn't deign to eat as it lacks variety, while my life overflows with abundance of meaning, purpose, sensory delight, and even amid this tirade love.I have to admit as I write and speak the word love that I'm hit with humility, what little I have, that my poor rhetoric and reflection haveled to a tone accusatory and condescending.Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe I'm fooling myself. But I'm sharing not to put down but to invite you to try, not sample or visit, but sincerely, authentically, and genuinely try to live this way for a while.Maybe start with food. For a week or two go for nothing packaged, no added salt, sugar, fat, nothing made extra convenient. Cook everything from scratch, maybe more than a week or two, until you master it, which may take months and will make you as sore as someone using muscles for the first time in their lives, but when strengthened will enable you to achieve more than ever.I predict you'll wish you had earlier, that you'll connect with your world, community, and family more than you thought possible, that you'llopen yourself to learning, growing, and connecting.If after you master local foods you return to Cracker Barrel, please teach me why, because I'll have something to learn from you.I predict instead you'll want to share what you've learned with others, and you'll be able to do the greatest thing anyone can about our environmental problems, greater than not flying, greater than avoiding packaging, greatest of all: you can lead others---people, communities, corporations, and governments -- to love, honor, and steward nature, which includes us.

TESTO DELL'ARTICOLO ➜http://www.filmgarantiti.it/it/articoli.php?id=54LO SCAFANDRO E LA FARFALLA - TOTALMENTE PARALIZZATO SCOPRE IL VERO SENSO DELLA VITA di Toni ViolaPremio per la miglior regia a Cannes, quattro nomination agli Oscar. Il bellissimo e commovente "Lo scafandro e la farfalla" del regista americano Julian Schnabel, racconta in 112 minuti la vicenda drammaticamente reale del francese Jean-Dominique Bauby. Colpito da ictus all'età di 42 anni, Bauby (autore di successo e redattore capo della prestigiosa rivista francese Elle) rimase poi vittima di una rara sindrome che lo paralizzò dalla testa ai piedi rinchiudendolo nel suo stesso corpo, come in uno scafandro. L'uomo dettò la sua autobiografia, da cui è tratto il film di Schnabel, in poco più di un anno utilizzando solo il battito di una palpebra, l'unica parte del corpo che era in grado di governare, perché per ogni altra funzione dipendeva dalle macchine. Un calvario di 16 mesi (Bauby si spense il 9 marzo 1997, dieci giorni dopo la pubblicazione del volume), ma anche un incredibile inno alla vita, vista e vissuta attraverso quell'occhio capace di esprimere tutta la profonda essenza di un uomo così umiliato e imprigionato, ma libero come una farfalla, nei battiti di quelle palpebre.È possibile che l'essere umano travolto da un'improvvisa, terribile tragedia scopra la sua vera natura e il senso più profondo della vita? Dobbiamo ammalarci ed esplorare i meandri dell'inferno perché ci appaia un angelo pronto ad aiutarci? Parte da queste domande Schnabel per dare vita a un autentico capolavoro intriso di straordinaria umanità, poesia, persino ironia, com'era nelle corde dello sfortunato Bauby, interpretato dal bravo Mathieu Amalric. Ma c'è anche profonda disperazione. Come quando, appena appreso a comunicare con il movimento delle palpebre, le sue prime parole sono: "Voglio morire". "Parole oscene e irrispettose" secondo la sua fisioterapista (Emmanuelle Seigner) che a quell'uomo sta dedicando tutta se stessa. E Bauby scoprirà come la vita valga la pena di essere vissuta comunque.Le infermiere, la moglie, i figli (delicatissima la scena del mare), gli amici, tutti si adattano alla sua nuova condizione e lo incoraggiano ad andare avanti in un viaggio che riserva anche momenti di ironia, non certo inaspettati per chi ha conosciuto direttamente certe situazioni di fragilità estrema: perché la capacità degli uomini di trovare risorse positive dentro se stessi è davvero infinita.Commovente tra le altre scene, a volte amare a volte dolcissime, anche un altro momento forte della pellicola: la telefonata con l'anziano padre invalido, disperato per non poter stare accanto al proprio figlio.Un tema, quello dell'intangibilità e sacralità della vita, spesso tabù sul grande schermo o affrontato piuttosto per ribadire il diritto all'eutanasia, è trattato da Schnabel in maniera sorprendente. Il regista ci ricorda infatti che anche un'esistenza apparentemente così miserabile può ancora riservare gioia e serenità, emozioni e sogni da cercare tra memorie e immaginazione. Intrappolato, con il protagonista, tra membra inerti per quasi un'ora, lo spettatore assiste quasi con l'occhio stesso di Bauby (e di Schabel) alle vicende che si dipanano sullo schermo con quello stesso sguardo, ascoltando la voce di un uomo che nei suoi monologhi interiori si chiede se quella si possa chiamare vita, che rimpiange cose mai dette, gesti mai compiuti, amore mai dato, la gioia perduta senza però mai perdere, persino, un innato senso dell'umorismo.Un film importante, anzi necessario: in tempi di dibattiti gridati e furenti rivendicazioni di presunti "diritti" di morire, di battaglie ideologiche giocate sul concetto scivoloso di "qualità della vita", il film è un invito a fare silenzio. Di fronte a qualcosa di più grande.

Snakeoil or Revolutionary Treatment? New treatments for stroke related conditions are coming out all the time. And with the deficits some folks live with, we desperately need them. Unfortunately, that also means there are a lot of scam therapies out there, too. Or even if they are not scams, there are still treatments that just don't work. The research doesn't support them and for many people the represent a waste of time and money. How do you tell the good from the bad? This is the framework I use. First, who is recommending it? Is it your doctor, therapist, or other member of your care team? If so, there's likely some validity to it. They have a vested interest in recommending safe and effective treatments to you, and they want you to get well. Or is it a random poster in an internet forum or a YouTube video? Those could still be good, but it pays to be skeptical. You need to go deeper into the scientific research or talk about it with your doctor or care team. Second, will insurance pay for it? If your insurance will pay for it, then it's pretty likely the data shows the treatment is effective for many people because the insurance companies don't like throwing away money. If insurance won't pay, well that doesn't tell you too much. They might be stingy or the data might show it doesn't work. or there might simply not be enough data yet. Third, Is it FDA approved (or approved by the appropriate standards body in your country? If so, that a positive sign. If not, then it likely hasn't been shown to be safe or effective and you ought to be cautious. So when we have that data, what else should we consider? First, look at the therapy to see if it's safe. What does the research show? Often this is the first phase of research. The recent Stanford study on stem cells, for example was about determining if it was safe, not determining if it was effective. We talked about this research last year with Dr. Nirav Shah. Second, is it effective? Has the research demonstrated scientifically that it is effective? Does it actually work for more than one or two people and how often does it work? Earlier this year, I talked with Dr. Michael Bennett, one of the world's leading experts in Hyperbaric Medicine. This is a therapy that is known to be safe, and it's effective for lots of other conditions, but the research does not demonstrate that it is effective for stroke. But if it's safe and only maybe effective, isn't it worth a shot? Maybe. But that brings us to the question of Opportunity Costs. Few of us have unlimited funds. And none of us have unlimited time. Spending time and money on one therapy means not spending time or money on something else. The traditional therapies like PT, OT, and Speech Therapy have evidence showing they are effective. Skipping them in favor of an unproven therapy can actually delay your recovery. So go into new and alternative therapies with a clear view of the risk if you opt to pursue them They may not work. A Day in a Life with Spasticity A few months ago, the American Heart Association reached out to me about participating in a video about tone and spasticity. I initially talked about tone and spasticity way back in Episode 3 -- Tone 101. You can see the new video here or just play it below:   Share it with other folks in your life who might want to learn about spasticity. Language A member of the Strokecast community sent me a private message on Twitter politely taking me to task for something I said last week.  When I talked about "The Diving Bell and the Butterfly" I initially referred to Jean Dominique Bauby as a victim. I ought to have referred to him as a survivor. Language matters as we rewire our brains. If you have had a stroke, and you're reading this today, you are a survivor. You are not a victim. Victims are folks who did not survive their stroke. Now Bauby ultimately passed away due to complications from his stroke nearly 2 years later. In that time, he learned to communicate despite his locked in syndrome and even wrote a book by blinking his eye. He seems to have lived well beyond the victim stage.

Here is the latest of our recordings from The British Society for Phenomenology’s 2018 Annual Conference ‘The Theory and Practice of Phenomenology’. James Rakoczi is from King's College London, and the paper is titled ‘Moving without movement: Merleau-Ponty’s “I can” in cases of global paralysis’.   Abstract: “In this paper, I aim to demonstrate how memoirs written by people who live with, or have experienced, global paralysis can illuminate and complicate Maurice Merleau-Ponty’s claim in Phenomenology of Perception that embodied movement is a necessary condition for a transcendental self. I argue that the kinds of movement these texts articulate shares an affinity with the kind of movement instantiated by Merleau-Ponty’s intentional arc: a ceaseless and adaptive movement, or a “therapeutic” movement, which constantly “recovers” from an incapacity to move. In short, Merleau-Ponty’s “I can” emerges ceaselessly from an “I cannot”. I shall make particular reference to two texts. First, I shall consider how any philosophy attempting to centre the importance of bodies-in-movement might align with the claims made in Kate Allatt’s memoir Running Free (2011), a text in which Allatt attributes an interior ‘running psyche’ as imperative to her miraculous recovery from locked-in syndrome. Second, I will read Jean-Dominique Bauby’s locked-in syndrome memoir The Diving-Bell and the Butterfly (Le scaphandre et le papillon, 1997) through the lens of Merleau-Ponty’s account of anosognosia, arguing that the text conceals its laborious method of production in the very process of describing that method. I will conclude by reflecting on the influence Merleau-Ponty has had on embodied therapies and textual accounts of lived illness experience, and indicate how understanding the ways in which embodied movement, textuality and therapeutics overlap has significance for our understanding of Merleau-Ponty’s claims.”   The British Society for Phenomenology’s Annual Conference took place at the University of Kent, in Canterbury, UK during July, 2018. It gathered together philosophers, literary scholars, phenomenologists, and practitioners exploring phenomenological theory and its practical application. It covered a broad range of areas and issues including the arts, ethics, medical humanities, mental health, education, technology, feminism, politics and political governance, with contributions throwing a new light on both traditional phenomenological thinkers and the themes associated with classical phenomenology. More information about the conference can be found at: https://www.britishphenomenology.org.uk/conference-2018/   The British Society for Phenomenology is a not-for-profit organisation set up with the intention of promoting research and awareness in the field of Phenomenology and other cognate arms of philosophical thought. Currently, the society accomplishes these aims through its journal, conferences and other events, and its podcast.

This week Kelly shares the story of her journey of learning to listen to her intuition and take time for herself and how this led her to her passion sharing her story. How it would not only help her through the hard times but also could help others with their own journeys. She shares a recent story about overcoming a fear of failure and listening to her “gut”, her intuition, and that by making that hard, but right decision, she freed herself to take a step back, regroup and move forward again. Episode Quotes: “Everything you want is on the other side of fear.” – Jack Canfield “Our destiny is not determined by the number of times we stumble, but the number of times we rise up, dust ourselves off, and move forward.” – Professor Dieter F.

Welcome to the Season Finale Welcome to the What's The Matter With Me? Podcast, Episode 33: A Scrap Of A Dad Is Still A Dad. It's the NBD season finale. My name is John, I'm 38 years old, husband, father of two, small business owner, radio DJ, podcaster, and I have multiple sclerosis so I made this podcast to share what I'm going through.  What's The Matter With Me? is a MS podcast and it's also about other things.  I am not a medical professional and you should not take this for medical advice. If you need medical advice ask your healthcare provider. The What's The Matter With Me? Podcast is available on Apple Podcasts and whatsthematterwithme.org Recap Episode 32 Last episode, I meditated that social media was like the mirror scene from Enter the Dragon, the final match where Bruce Lee fights Han. They played it during setup at Lollapalooza before Smashing Pumpkins in 1995.  Some listeners wrote me about  the Wahls protocol. We talked about how this episode is the season finale and plans for the future.  There are new plants in the garden.  I am happy to say that my disability conciousness grew a lot in season 1.  Stay tuned for more in season 2..

In The Handicap Space Another parent was parked in the handicap space on Monday. I was dropping off John John and Koko.  She said she was late for work. I said that may be true, but this is space is not for convenience, it's for access.  I told her I was a parent too and that it wasn't personal. She said again she was late for work. I told her that I thought it was for access not convenience, and that furthermore her car was in my way and creating danger for me because I have to "go off-road" with my two kids.  I have hurt myself very seriously doing the same thing before.  Letting it slide would have been my preference, but when she started justifying her presence in the space, I had to say something.  My kids were watching. A Scrap of a Dad The Diving Bell and the Butterfly The Diving Bell and the Butterfly (2007) was directed by Julian Schnabel about Jean-Dominique Bauby, played by Mathieu Almaric, who was the editor of Elle Magazine. He experienced a major stroke that left him with a case of what is often called "shut-in syndrome". He had no way of communicating, or moving other than blinking his eye. With the help of a speech therapist, he learns to communicate using only blinking, and writes his memoir. The movie uses point of view cinematography after the stroke and scenes from the memoir are shown as flashbacks. "Bauby assured people of an indestructible human essence inside the destructible human body." - Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle Fear of being shut in Roger Ebert pointed out that Julian Schnabel has now directed three movies about artist creating in the face of obstacles. Basquiat, about a New York graffiti artist, Before Night Falls about persecuted poet Reynaldo Arenas. Roger Ebert said he feared shut-in syndrome during his jaw surgery. MS can shut people down - I feel the same way, and this is so terrifying.  I think this is why it had such an effect on me. Phone call A Scrap Of A Dad The film affected me most when he spoke about being a father. In one scene, he is on the beach in his wheelchair with his family.  He reflects upon his inability to offer touch to his children. He is sad, but he says that even a scrap of a dad is still a dad. This greatly affected me. It made me cry. Something I really struggle with is accepting my limitations in the context of f...

In this episode, I discuss two films about Jean-Dominique Bauby, who was an editor at Elle Magazine in France and suffered a stroke in 1995 at the age of 43. The stroke plunged him into a rare condition known as locked-in syndrome. He wrote his memoir, The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, by blinking his left eyelid.

The 5th installment of ‘4 X Mindfulness’ was recorded live at Manhattan Bar and Grill in Nanjing, China. This is the last podcast that Neila and Andy recorded while living in China, so this episode took on a special meaning as they are saying good bye to the life they’ve known for the past five years. Neila shared her two seeds of insight and inspiration for the past week with the first one being rooted in the idea of non-attachment and the nature of impermanence in our lives. She shares the work of Marie Kondo, a famous Japanese organizational consultant who focuses her work on decluttering the unnecessary in our lives. Neila also shared the inspirational story of Jean-Dominique Bauby, an author and past editor of the French fashion magazine ELLE. It is an extraordinary journey that led to the book The Diving Bell and the Butterfly. For Andy’s two seeds of mindfulness for the past week, he shares his thoughts on the impermanence of relationships in our lives and the importance of always remaining open to connecting with new people who cross our paths as it’s sometimes these new people who may very well have a very special, lasting impact on our lives. Andy also shares some inspiration he gained from the latest Tim Ferriss podcast featuring the work Ryan Halliday. Ryan discusses the ‘Blank Canvas’ strategy which is all about putting others first in our lives. Neila and Andy truly hope that you gain some takeaway value from this episode and would like to thank you all for taking the time to listen to their 4 X Mindfulness series. Bios Neila Steele and Andy Vasily are international educators who have worked at fully authorized IB schools in 4 different countries over the past 16 years (Japan, Azerbaijan, Cambodia, and China). Andy is a consultant, workshop leader, presenter, and speaker. Neila presents and leads multiple workshops in the area of mindfulness. They have devoted themselves to sharing the powerful effects that mindfulness has on promoting greater mental, social, emotional, and physical well-being.

Filmklubbens første film er IMDB’s nummer 250, “Dykkerklokken og Sommerfuglen”. Filmen er baseret på den virkelige historie om Jean-Dominique Bauby, der efter et alvorligt slagtilfælde vågnede op med locked-in-syndrom, altså lam i hele kroppen og begrænset til at kommunikere med verden ved at blinke med det ene øje. Det er et hæsblæsende jomfrumøde med fire meget ivrige klubmedlemmer, der (spoiler alert!) ikke er helt så imponerede over filmen, som IMDB’s gennemsnitlige bruger lader til at være. Giv os din egen mening om ugens episode, om ugens film eller meget gerne om næste uges film, IMDB’s #249 “Blood Diamond”, på filmklub@lytbar.dk. Allerede i næste uge giver vi både “Dykkerklokken og Sommerfuglen” og “Tre Farver: Rød” væk til en lytter, der har sendt os en mail.

Rarely does a film truly take you into somebody's head for almost the entire film. Sure, you get POVs here and there in films, but it's a tricky tool to use, especially for longer periods of time. When Ronald Harwood hit on this in-the-head technique for his adaptation of Jean-Dominique Bauby's biography, it was exactly what the story needed to be told as a film. Enter Julian Schnabel, an artist/filmmaker who brought his own intuitive magic to the directing of it, and you end up with 2007's "The Diving Bell and the Butterfly," a stunningly gorgeous film that's as powerful a story of human resilience and beauty as it is a difficult film to watch because of the subject — a man living with locked-in syndrome. Join us — Pete Wright and Andy Nelson — as we continue our foreign language series with this brilliant film. We talk about our feelings of the movie and how powerful it is yet how difficult it can be to watch and why. We chat about the unique techniques Schnabel brings to the table in the making of the film and why they work so well with this story. We discuss the actors — Mathieu Amalric, Max von Sydow, Emmanuelle Seigner, Marie-Josée Croze and more — and how they all bring an amazing personal strength to the film. We talk about Janusz Kaminski's beautiful cinematography and how well it lends itself to the telling of this story. We bring up the novel Bauby's widowed girlfriend wrote about her experience and talk about why she got virtually left out of the film. And we look at the critical reception this film had worldwide, even if it struggled to bring in the bucks. It's a glorious poem of a film and one worth talking about.

Rarely does a film truly take you into somebody's head for almost the entire film. Sure, you get POVs here and there in films, but it's a tricky tool to use, especially for longer periods of time. When Ronald Harwood hit on this in-the-head technique for his adaptation of Jean-Dominique Bauby's biography, it was exactly what the story needed to be told as a film. Enter Julian Schnabel, an artist/filmmaker who brought his own intuitive magic to the directing of it, and you end up with 2007's "The Diving Bell and the Butterfly," a stunningly gorgeous film that's as powerful a story of human resilience and beauty as it is a difficult film to watch because of the subject — a man living with locked-in syndrome. Join us — Pete Wright and Andy Nelson — as we continue our foreign language series with this brilliant film. We talk about our feelings of the movie and how powerful it is yet how difficult it can be to watch and why. We chat about the unique techniques Schnabel brings to the table in the making of the film and why they work so well with this story. We discuss the actors — Mathieu Amalric, Max von Sydow, Emmanuelle Seigner, Marie-Josée Croze and more — and how they all bring an amazing personal strength to the film. We talk about Janusz Kaminski's beautiful cinematography and how well it lends itself to the telling of this story. We bring up the novel Bauby's widowed girlfriend wrote about her experience and talk about why she got virtually left out of the film. And we look at the critical reception this film had worldwide, even if it struggled to bring in the bucks. It's a glorious poem of a film and one worth talking about.
