Dad Walking in Therapy

My Dad had a stroke on September 27, 2008. He was paralyzed on his entire left side and couldn't breathe or eat on his own. This is a video taken on April 4, 2009 of his progress since that time. He has come a long way. My sister and I are incredibly proud of him and are happy to share his accomplishments thus far with you.

We love you Pop. Show 'em how it's done!

Your dad is a hero. my dad had a stroke three days ago. he cannot speak right now. speech can come back, though- right?

@vinegarthomas yes it certainly can... my father couldn't speak at first either... in fact he couldn't breathe or talk on his own either.... now we have full fledged conversations with each other, slightly slurred as expected but still pretty clear... so keep encouraging your dad and THERAPY THERAPY THERAPY i'm telling you thats why he's where he's at today
