If he can let his emotion come with the words, chances are he will be just fine.
Checking in late, not supposed to be typing. But for this, I want to give you hope and to encourage him to get those pistons firing. Therapy is great for this, and I hope to hear he gets back to snuff.
Now, by all................Can type no more...

Thanks Spa, HB. I just spoke to my mum and Grandad has had a MRI and a heart scan, no results yet though. He is alert and trying to talk but getting frustrated so he is getting out words like 'shit!' LOL!!!

I'll be keeping your Dad and Craig in my prayers Becks. So sorry. Lets hope the Doc's got the right anticlots running fast enough and he will regain his strength in therapy. It won't come back right away but if he got there early, which it sounds like he did, then the chances are really good.

Cheers guys, mum is keeping me informed. He's having tests done now, he's conscious but can't talk (the only word he can say properly is NO, lol), his right side is shaky etc, and he looks really vacant apparently. Waiting to hear more news soon.
Vail - Craig is gone for 6 months this time. That's standard deployment length for the NZ army etc.
