Well got a call yesterday from husbands PT and she said he is almost to standing!! I am so amazed at his continues progress. For anyone just beginning their journey let me tell your from an outside viewpoint that at first the recovery is VERY SLOW but when your brain starts to heal things pick up VERY FAST as my good friend on here ron ron says the little things add up they really do. and at first you may not see the progress but let me tell you its there. This has been the darkest time in my life all i know for sure is that the whole time God had sort of a night light guiding me and being there for me. At times I did not see this I was so wraped up in my own hurt and pain of the unknown. I just want to let people know that this journey has been about 2 and a half mos. so far and i know now my husband will walk again and will be him as much as he can. As I post this I am thinking back to those early days where I felt like I was sinking quickly at times and there was NOTHING I could do about it but pray and become more close to God. All I had was Him and looking back that was all I needed. I Love my husband and all you survivors because I am just the person on the outside him and all of you are on the inside and if it was this hard for me I cant even imagine what you all are going through. Please keep being strong you truely are the heroes. xo
Thank you for sharing your husbands story and yours too. It is a reminder to be patient and know that healing will come but that it takes time. Best wishes for continued healing for your husband and you who love him!

Thank you for sharing. My wife had BA/ stroke on June 14th. We see progress and plateau and than she starts to progress again. The road is long for the spouse and this is a great place to turn when need advice or just a kind word. My wife of 42 years and I have a strong faith and know she will be better and will also add yours to the prayers tonight. God Bless from Maine, "big jon"
Jet I'm so happy to hear of the improvements--Amen! I know this has had to be so very difficult for you to get thru, and very scary and bewildering. I'm glad you posted today as I've thought about you often and have been wondering what has been happening with your husband as well as with how you're holding up.
Excellent news, peace to you Jet !
