My dad had a stroke...

[+StevoFC MVC]

I haven't been around much the last couple weeks anyways, but on Thursday my father had a stroke. I've been at the hospital for the last 2 days. Haven't really had any time to be here. Hopefully soon everything will be back to normal...

I am about to go back to the hospital soon, so I will go into further details when I get a chance.

[Abhishek kapoor]

[Matrix XII]

Oh my, that's terrible. I'm glad he survived! :)

I'm so sorry to hear that. I hope your father makes a full recovery soon.

Everything is still the same. His condition hasn't changed at all.

Basically, he had a stroke that effected one nerve. He lost the ability to swallow (water, food, saliva, anything) and has trouble with his voice. But he can still talk. Everything else right now seems normal.

They moved him out of the ICU last night and into a private room.

The same thing happened to my grandmother, she had a stroke (ended up being the 3rd time she had one) and she lost the ability to swallow and speak.

Hopefully your father gets better man, unfortunately my grandmother never did :cry:

All the best man, best thing you can do is be there for him and keep his spirits up.

Strokes are always unfortunate and can incure life long effects. I'm hoping your father receives none of those and can make a full recover.

My grandma had a stroke, she's declining rapidly ... can't even see her because she's halfway across the globe

[vipwoody]

I hope the best for your dad, and hope he will get out of the hospital ASAP.

[MytMowse]

Sorry to hear about your father. Hopefully things will revert a little bit and he can swallow.

Like many said, family first over anything else.

[Yusuf M. Veteran]

I hope the best for your father. May he recover fully from this horrible condition. Keep us posted!

That sounds terrible. My great-grandmother had a stroke, unfortunately, she died a year later (just in May). So, I (kind of, because I wasn't very close to my great-grandmother) understand what you're going through. My grandfather, who is my favorite member of the family (we are exactly alike), also has heart disease, and he seems to be doing okay (he just can't do some things physically), but his potential of dying worries me very much.

Hopefully the second situation (with my grandfather) will pass on to you, and he will be fine.

Man, hijacking a get well thread is just so wrong.

Here's to a speedy recovery!
