Today he has sat up in a armchair. He can not speak yet other then yes or hello . no sentence. He is paralyzed on his right side. He has people working with him every day with speech therapy and moving therapy ( do not know the word ) The doc asked him if he thought she was difficult and he said yes and smiled ! So he is in there. Now he just have to do the work to come out !

God, Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
The stash to make a quilt to help me cope,
A quilt to give to comfort those I love in times of hurt, fear and uncertainty.
And the courage to keep on sewing when life itself seems held together by a single thread of hope. -
That is such good news. I know when you said he took a turn for the worse I thought to just wait. I have heard so many stories where people that were so close to giving up suddenly seem to get better. This is such a roller coaster disease. I hope he continues the progress and makes a full recovery -
Sounds like he's found the right path. Now to keep him on it to good health!Katrina
