Help wanted.

[keefie]

Yesterday morning my father had a mini stroke. He's getting all his words mixed up, he knows what he wants to say but it comes out all wrong. I took him to the doctors yesterday and he's got a hospital appointment tomorrow at 9am. Your prayers would be much appreciated

Keith, May our Good Lord bless your father,

and bless you. Show love in your look, in your eyes

and give a big grin at the wrong words. Let him know you understand.

God bless.

I pray your father returns to good health.

You are in our prayers. My mother-in-law had a mini stroke several years age. She had the same troubles saying what she was thinking. Her sense if humor helped her along as we made a game trying to figure out what she was trying to say. If we guessed it she would yell "Bingo!".

My Grandma had multiple strokes over the years...it's hard but smile at the mistakes, and be patient. I hope everything goes well for you both.

Kindest Regards,

Nick.

A teacher friend of mine had a major stroke about 4 weeks ago. His speech is coming back slowly but he really has to concentrate on what he wants to say. He is home now and all of his therapists visit him at home to work with him.  But I must tell you a funny story about my girlfriends Mum who had a stroke many years ago.  Her speech never returned except for swear words and she swore like a trooper   the funny part was she was very prim and proper before the stroke and didn't swear at all, but they were the only words we could understand the rest we had to play charades. The staff at any hospital she went to after that thought she was speaking Gaelic because she had a Scottish accent.        

 

I truly hope your dad comes out of this alright Keith he will be in my prayers and thoughts, so will you.

It's sad when this happens but at the same time uplifting when you see a whole community like this with members from all over the globe come together to pray and wish your father a speedy recovery. Incredible.

I will be praying.

Thanks all you guys and gals, your prayers must be working, he has regained about 60% of his speech already (and thats in the first week) He will still need speech therapy, but the doctors think he should make a 95 to 100% recovery.
Thanks everyone, I couldn't ask for a better family than I have found here

Keith.
