And yet another update on Joe...from San Antonio

[tinhorn97062]

His speech is improving daily, and he’s mobile. Unfortunately, his right arm is still next to nothing. He’s not super chatty, like he was, but I can imagine life’s pretty frustrating at the moment. I’m going to try to get down to see him next weekend.

For those not “in the know”, Joe had a stroke a while back and spent some time in a rehab facility, and has since been released from there.

Glad to hear of his progress. My wife had a severe stroke in 2010, and I can tell you that all of the conventional wisdom about strokes and recovery is correct. You will get about 95% of all the recovery that you are going to get in the first year, and after 18 months there is little change. Personality-wise, you seldom get back exactly the same person you had before the incident. Best wishes to Joe, and I'll mention him again in my prayers.
