Don't worry about us, just focus on your husband's recovery and taking care of the family. They come before us and hey, we're not going anywhere so take your time and be positive. In the end, everything will work out and be back to normal. Even though similar things have happened to some members of my family, I cannot imagine what you must be going through. Just know you have all our support

Remain strong and hang in there!

All the best for you and your loved ones :)

I just got here, so I'm not really sure who this is. Nevertheless, a stroke is serious business and my thoughts are with this individual and their family. It's absolutely terrible that these things can happen to us as humans and can make life a truly miserable affair. I'm glad to hear that he is doing better and hope that he will be back to 110% of what he was before. These things should not happen to anyone, just as I feel with dementia and cancer. Two thousand years of human evolution, and it upsets me that we cannot prevent these horrible catastrophies from destroying our lives and those of loved ones. Not even one person should have to deal with this kind of pain. Not even one.

Thanks for all these updates, it really gives an idea of how serious of a condition it is. Send him our regards; I hope everything turns out better sooner rather than later.

I've seen you around the SSL group for quite a while before the accident happened, and you seem to be an amazing guy in general. All I can do is wish you a quick recovery, Krill.

Hi Everyone! Stopping in to give y'all an update on Krill ..He is doing pretty well this week he has his good days and bad. He has had therapy and they are helping so much.They gave him a list of about 50 words to work on at home with me and he can say almost all of them missing only maybe 5 to 10 depending on how his days been.He went to a therapy session by himself with medical transport.He also stayed home a few hours yesterday as i had a Dr appointment and our son was at his grandparents house.When i got home he had cleaned up our sons toys in the livingroom for me :-) He has been able to make his own bowl of cereal for breakfast without making a mess.He has been online and trying to type to friends.He can say "ok" which is better than it was.Tomorrow he is going with his father to sign paper work at the lawyers. Im not sure if i told you about the lawsuit against the first hospital i sent him to the day he had the strokes.They said the catscans showed nothing and his symptoms were a chronic issue from his schizophrenia and sent him home with a blood pressure super high 168/109 and him at that point unable to speak. I sent him to another hospital with a stroke unit later that day and they told me they could see the strokes on those exact same scans and they knew he was having the strokes immediately.So the first hospital missed the 2 hour window to give him a clot busting drug and prevent anymore strokes and cause all this damage he is now dealing with.So we are suing them for malpractice.Please if you have any questions or advise dont hesitate to reply with questions or comments.
