@Penny it’s very disappointing that there is no therapy over weekends. Hopefully once he had speech and physio programs in place he’ll be able to work on the independently at weekends.

It’s understandable that he feels emotional, it’s such a huge thing that has happened to him (and to you.)

It’s good that he’s eating well. Not surprising he isn’t sleeping well - hospitals are noisy places and he isn’t doing enough to wear himself out at the moment.

Thank you for your Christmas wishes. I hope you are able to to enjoy a few treats this Christmas too.

@Penny……that’s great news that he’s been moved to the rehab stroke unit. Hopefully next week they can start working with him. We noticed with my dad that he was a lot more emotional after his stroke.
It’s bound to have drained you having gone through all the shock of this. Try and take some time to look after yourself if you can too. Merry Xmas to you too.
