I am so glad to hear your BIL is making a good recovery.
Hospitals are very worrisome places these days.
They/their main ICU did a good job the first 3 days. Then, he seemed be forgotten in their step down ICU. Fortunately his wife contacted her sister a RN, and 2 SIL’s RN’s including my wife, and they agreed that he needed to get out of the hospital and come home.
Again, the staff did a good job on his discharge and setting up his at home therapies. His at home post stroke therapies have been excellent.
He is able to dial long distance and able to carry on good conversations with the person or family he wanted to talk to.
