My deepest appreciation to all of you for your prayers and good wishes for my brother. I’m always so impressed by the way FReepers come together to offer spiritual support to each other!
While I’m not on-site with him, I’m glad to report that he is off the ventilator. However, as of this morning he was only able to communicate with a right-handed thumbs-up or down and weak hand squeeze. Attempts at speech are just groans. His left side is completely out, so far. The real irony is that, when the stroke occurred, he was undergoing deep-brain-stimulation surgery for his Parkinson’s Disease. So the surgery that was supposed to make him “better” has (for now) actually made things worse! He is only 59 yrs old and has myriad other physical/psychological health issues.
FRiends, I’m so grateful for your response. May I ask that you continue to include “workerbee’s brother” in your prayers.
Keep us posted.
Thanks for the update. The ups and downs with medical conditions are hard to take. Prayers continue for your brother and for his medical team. May they be led and guided.
Awwww. One step at a time. I’m hoping that the continuous monitoring yields positive, measurable steps in the right direction. Praying for you both.
Thanks for the news. Wish it could be better but there is obviously some improvement by going off the ventilator.
Hopefully more improvement to come.
You and your brother are in my prayers.
Thank you for the update, workerbee.
I will keep your brother in prayer.
Dear Father, we pray for workerbee’s brother, that You will restore the faculties that have been damaged by this stroke, and bring him full recovery, in Jesus Name, Amen.
You’ve got it workerbee, and you may just be surprised at how well he might do once the pain subsides and he heals up a bit.
Thanks for the update. Prayers are working and will continue.
Very good news that your brother is awake and alert. Continuing prayers for strength and perseverance. Once your brother recovers from this acute phase, physical, speech and occupational therapy can do amazing things to help regain activities of daily living and productivity.
Praise God for his Kindness and Mercy
may your brothers rapid healing continue.
