I am heading home. I will get all soap orders out by the end of this week and wish to thank you all for your patience with me! On a wonderful note, my father is being released from the Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital today and going home! Watching him return from the stroke has been a major miracle to me. I could sit with him and watch him get better day to day, sometimes hour to hour. He is up and walking now and not drooling, his speaking is coming back quickly and although his handwriting still suffers, he is expected to return back to normal within a couple of months. They are predicting a 95-100% recovery within 2 months. I am awed at the time I spent with him this past week, watching his return to being a functional dad and person again.
Although my dad was too late for it, if you can get a person to a hospital within an hour of a stroke, they have a shot they can give to them that will reverse the damage almost immediately. I think this is very important to know. My father refused to go in an ambulance, even refused to go to the hospital and had to be dragged there complaining like the stubborn old Irishman he is. Knowing this now, if this should ever happen again, he will go to the hospital immediately. I have to say that I am still awed at his recovery and will never lose the memories of this past week.
Thank you all for your prayers. I will never forget that you all pulled together for me at a time of crisis and offered me your hearts and your prayers. You gents are all a very big part of my life now and I am grateful! I am no where near ready for life without my dad. Thank you all for your prayers and thoughts for myself and my dad...
Bear Hugs!

What a blessing!!! Definitely demonstrates the power of prayer. We'll still keep your father and your family in prayer.
Wonderful news Sue!! I am happy that you were able to be there with your Dad and help him along his journey of recovery. Good Docs and therapists are truly gifts.
Good that you have reminded everyone about the 'golden hour' in a health crisis. Everyone should also know which of the closest hospitals have top level trauma units and their specialty; cardiac, stroke, burn, etc. Also know symptoms to act on.
