Hi, my husband had a hemorrhagic stroke on Dec 6th and has only been awake for a week now, its still early yet, the body has to heal. Coma is sometimes a blessing. Be strong I'm sure she will be fine. We are 1 month and 2 days in. There may be alot of set backs, which are normal I am learning. We will do this together.
My wife wife is going through the same scenario, please also include me in your updated as that will help me as well. For my wife its been almost a month & half in ICU, but she is showing slight signs of recovery by movement of her eyes & fingers. But there is fever which she is battling since long time. Peneporth, eyes opening will take time in some patients, more over there will be a sleep disorder in certain patients so do not loose your hope. Being a human we expect a miracle but that will happen with the time. God has medicine to all, keep your strength alive. Let us keep each other posted on the developments.
