Stroke recovery is a long-term process requiring consistent medical treatment, physical therapy, and strong support systems from family, friends, and online communities; early intervention with clot removal can reverse stroke damage, but recovery varies based on individual circumstances and requires patience, perseverance, and ongoing rehabilitation efforts.

Buzz missing puzzle piece was missing.
>> No, >> that's what I was saying. I was feeling like there was a missing puzzle piece, you know, during all these months of being in the hospitals and everything cuz you know, everybody's from out of town and um um I would say like a quarter of my family still lives here in California, but they're all spurtled around and uh Arizona and Las Vegas and all over the place, Mississippi. And so it was really nice to see family. It was really like a closure that I actually felt that I really needed all this time because I've been pushing and pushing and pushing for this man to get better and to get stronger and to just by phone calls, you know what I mean? So, it was really good to have family. So, yes, Lyn, it was nice. It was really nice.

>> My one was good.
>> And that's when it was good. Way before COVID, right? and he said all of a sudden they just started taking money from them and you know charging for a lot of rides but then paying them less and stuff like that. So yeah that was crazy. I remember he was telling me oh my gosh it's hitting us hard you know and that's why he started getting more educated and he got went got his IT license itch doing all that stuff and he started doing that to try to make things better and that was on our last rounds you guys. That's how we uh ended that part. He was a good it tech person knowing a lot about computers and programmings and stuff like that.

My hands and feet are bad.
>> Mhm.

>> So, he's always had hands and uh feet issues, like nerve pains.
>> For the past couple of years, it just flared up. So he was having that before the stroke he died. So he still feels it.
>> But the stroke don't hurt.
>> But the stroke does not hurt. It does not hurt. Um does it hurt to move those things when they like Okay, that's good.
>> Only right now it hurt.
>> Mhm.

>> Wow. And what does the pain feel like though? What is it like? Is it like a electric >> tingling feeling? tingling >> right now.
>> Well, last night they were on fire.
>> Last night they felt like they were on fire. Can you guys imagine being in that kind of pain 24/7? And there's nothing that you can really do about it. I mean, they tried to give him like nerve medication for that, but it doesn't do anything. And that's how it all started.
It just never took care of anything. He was very uncomfortable, but he still kept going. Still kept going. Um, and see, is he getting better? That's what Wick Reeves wants to know.
>> Thank you, Wick Re.
>> I'm trying to get better.
>> Mhm. And he is every day he's doing something different. Either he's getting stronger or he's pushing himself a little bit further to do something extra. You see what I mean?

>> Mhm.
>> But sometimes I can't.
I need help.
>> Yeah. And in the beginning, remember, you couldn't even use your computer. You couldn't even touch the mouse pad. You could not type anything. Now he's starting to pick some few letters and type some things. He's doing it. He's really not with the left, but he's doing more with the right.
>> But he's still doing it, you know, not using me as much, which is good because he can also pipe his phone. How you do it? Through the computer and I phone app.
>> So he has a phone app >> and FaceTime.
>> Uhhuh. And he can just talking to who my daughter is.
>> Yeah. He was just on the phone on his computer looking at the screen. phone >> and he called him. So now I don't have to really do all that extra stuff. He can actually do it if he feels like it.

It says, "My husband had a stroke a year ago this month." Oh, >> I'm sorry about that, Louis.
>> So sorry. And it says, "He is better.
Make sure you do all of your therapy and you will be up in no time."
>> Oh, Mike said.
>> That's what who?
>> Mike.
>> Mike. Who? Mike?
>> Your cousin.
>> Oh, my cousin Mike. Yeah. Sorry you guys. I'm like who you >> strange?
>> Oh my god. Yeah, my cousin Mike.
>> It was just a year.
>> I know. He was just here you guys today.
So I'm like who are you talking? Cuz I'm thinking about what she was saying. It took her a whole year and as this month and I'm thinking about you next month and I'm like wow. That's what I was in that moment. Sorry. But yeah, my cousin Mike was here you guys and he shared with Rod.
>> Absolutely.
>> Uhhuh. She said uh where is it? Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh. My gosh. Um, hold on, you guys. Here it is. It says, "My husband had a stroke a year ago. This month, he is better." Oh, thank goodness. It says, "Make sure you do all of your therapy and you will be up in no time."
>> Thank you.
>> Thank you so much. My cousin Michael's here and he had a stroke, too, you guys.
And it's kind of similar to like what Rod had. The same thing, the back of the brain right here, the vein in the back of his neck, too. got >> it was crazy >> and got man got to >> but they got to him earlier. So the sooner that you have the symptoms you get immediately to an ER but he went to a stroke center. I don't know why he went directly to a stroke center but he went to a direct stroke center and they picked it out and they got on him immediately >> in the hospital.
>> And he was already at the hospital.
That's why >> and that's why because they was able to get right to it. When they see an active stroke happening, they can kind of reverse it in a way, but he still has some side effects. He said he couldn't speak at all. He couldn't move at all.
And then he was eventually able to write and he wrote to his wife some personal things and uh he said it was really hard to speak again.
Um but he didn't have to have rehab though. Isn't that weird? So they say he was doing so well he didn't need rehab.
So, like I said, everybody can have strokes are different and it depends on the extremities of the the stroke and the blood clot. And um he did not have a stent in there cuz Rod had to have a stent, but he didn't. They removed it or they they went and gave him the medication that he needed to stop the bleeding. So, yeah. Isn't that amazing you guys?
>> Yeah. Faster the better.
>> Remove the clot.
>> Yeah. To remove the clot. That's what it was. They said they shrink it too.
That's crazy. But I'm just letting you guys know. Yes. If you guys have any weird symptoms of slur speech, uh disoriented, uh can't lift your arm, uh right your right or left hand goes numb, >> going, >> those are all signs.
>> Go straight to the doctor.
>> Go straight to the doctor, you guys. And also I want to read to tell you guys I was reading about a a doctor here in Roseville. He's a doctor that works in the stroke center and he had the symptoms of having a stroke while he was driving to work, you guys. So he rushed over to the ER right where he works and tried to communicate to them. He called his wife on the phone. He said he couldn't use his hand after he called his wife after that. But he pulled right up into the drive uh into the parking lot and went in and they took him right in immediately and administered that reverse drug to make it happen to make sure that he will not get the full stroke. And he had it too, you guys. So, like I said, it's crazy. And he was a stroke doctor.
>> Yeah.

Please do.
>> Do you have my phone number? You going to message us on Facebook or you going to um >> I don't remember. I think I don't think you have my phone number, right? Message me on Facebook.
>> Yes, indeed. Thank you for asking. Um, a lot of people don't understand that when people have these kind of things, situations of emergency situations, okay, life does not get back on course until everything is a-okay and 100%, right? So, Rod is not at that 100% because he has to do still a lot of things. He has to go to rehab to do he wants to walk again. He needs to do some more things. He got to get a little stronger. And people don't understand that finances stuck, you know what I'm saying? They're stuck and then idled. So when you need to have assistance and you need to get the help that you need, that's when your friends, your family comes through and they try to keep you afloat, right? And thank you, Lisa, for asking that cuz you have kept us afloat, too. I just want to say thank you to you, Crayola, as well.
You guys have been financially helping as well. And I just want to say that it's really important to really have somebody sticking behind you guys to push you guys through so you don't have to worry about that. The main thing was they didn't want us to be homeless when we got back home because where were we going to go if they took our house, right? What happened? Where would we go and stay at a hospital for the rest of our life or I don't know. But they knew that that was important and those are the most things that we needed more than anything. There's still bills. There's still car notes. there's a car note.
There's still, you know, you still got to eat, you know, you still got to breathe, you know. So, you got bills that are still coming in. So, bills never stop. Okay? I'm not talking about necessarily medical bills, but we're talking about bills that the house needs. You know, you have electricity, you have phones, you have all the stuff for communicating with you guys. It never stops. That's why we have the super chats down here at the bottom, you guys. We have super chats down here. The S is here. that also helps donate to help us get to that part cuz now we're actually actually happy to get it from YouTube. So, we're excited to finally get there. Um, but it's been helping.
Um, cash apps are in the bio. That helps. Venmo in the bio as well. That helped us get along a long way, you guys. So, I just want to say it never stops. It keeps going, especially when you're taking care of him. Yes, I could be getting paid through the state, but that's a process. You guys know everybody don't understand that you have to fill out an application. You got to get an intake interview. Then you got to wait and then you got to try to get orientation class. Right.
>> And my my babysitter.
>> Yeah. Yeah. He needs a babysitter so I can go, you know, take those that class and stuff. But people don't understand there's a process. So, it's not like it happens overnight. Oh, you just filling out the patient and you're approved. No, no, it takes time, you guys. And he's been home since February. And what is this? July. And I have not received one check yet. So, >> life goes on.
>> Yeah.
>> Yeah. So, anyway, like we're trying to say is like >> it's it's not easy. And life still goes.
The bill collectors still come. They want their money and other things. It's crazy.
>> Life still goes on.
>> Yep. Life still basically goes on and they don't care. Oh. Oh, we're so sorry you had a stroke. So, when can you make the payment? That's what they do.
>> That's what they do. That's what they do. So, yes, you guys never turn your back on people who are going through things like this. Oh, they're getting a lot of money. Oh, yeah. They're monetized. Okay, but check this out.
Being monetized is a process, too. you guys. And guess what? We have not received one check yet from YouTube. So, that's a process. So, I'm just letting you guys know even though we getting monetized down here and all this other stuff. Oh, don't think, oh, they were getting monetized, they're getting money and this and that. We have not gotten our first check yet. So, it takes time and it's been what, a year since he's had a stroke, >> just real.
>> Okay. Just wanted to clear that up, y'all. Oh, >> baby. I'm keeping it real, honey, cuz people want to know. Jackson says, "Hey, well, it's uh 8:33 p.m. here." Oh, you on the East Coast. Hey.

You know, it's like we don't really want to open up all the time and tell all our business like that, but we have to tell some of this was happening because some people don't understand and they're thinking, "Oh, they're balling.
