This is hopefully good news, according to the article:

“Due to his young age, good health and the nature of the stroke, doctors are very confident in the Senator’s recovery over the weeks ahead.”

I pray for his recovery.

My husband had a bleed in his brain back in 2001. He was paralized on his left side, but with therapy he overcame and was able to drive again. They are never the same physically though.

News conference today:

Kirk’s doctor says:

He has opened up and removed part of the skull 4 in. x 8 in. to relieve pressure on the brain. Says Kirk may not get use of left arm as of now.

Doctor said diagnosis is:

Carotid artery dissection
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Carotid artery dissection is a separation of the layers of the artery wall supplying oxygen-bearing blood to the head and brain, and is the most common cause of stroke in young adults.[1] (While generic dissection can imply any kind of tear, cut or other breach in a tissue, in this context of vascular medicine, dissection is a blister-like de-lamination between the outer and inner walls of a vessel, generally originating with a partial leak in the inner lining.)[2]
