I'm pleased to hear Victor is making good progress.  This is a fantastic site for support, we can all rely on others to support us when we are troubled.

Good news Everlasting. Brains (and people) are so complex that one can really predict just how far a recovery will go. I hope Victor continues to exceed anyone's expectations in his recovery. Always believe.

Everlasting, that is fantastic news I wish you both well. It is so scary when some thing like this happens. I remember last year, my husband was working part time and he came home and said he didn't feel well, I was fussing and he said "just give me a cup of tea and a paracetamol" He went to bed and I thought this is not right,all the signs were there, so I called an ambulance, he was only having a heart attack, it scared the shi** out of me. He also made a recovery with heart surgery, but what a scarey time, so I feel for you. Thank goodness all is well.
