My husband had a massive left hemorrhagic stroke last November at age 38. His understanding has gotten a lot better, but not fully, and still struggles with commands. He can walk with an AFO brace, but no movement right knee down. His right arm has shoulder movement, but no elbow or below. He still cannot read except a few words here and there, nor text or type, but he can write numbers and good with them, and mimic letters/words. My biggest want is his communication for our kids and me. He can say No, I know, and I don’t know (but without the D sound). I know with neuro plasticity, he can still make improvements, but has anyone had this bad of aphasia and made great progress? Thank you!
Edit:
We were at Shepherd Center for 4 months and he’s been getting PT, OT, and ST twice a week since.

My husband (39) had a massive hemorrhagic stroke on the left side almost 7 months ago. He can walk with an AFO brace but no control knee down. His right arm has nothing elbow down, and he has aphasia and apraxia. His understanding is probably around 80-90% now which is a huge improvement, but he still cannot follow commands or speak any English or text or write (more than like 5 words). I know there’s still a long road ahead, but most said the most improvement is by 6 months. When will we know if he’ll ever drive again or be able to communicate better? Right now it’s yes no nods and hand gestures, which aren’t always right. Thank you!
