read your blog for the first time. thank you for sharing. i am a survivor. i too had 2 trips to er post stroke for low blood pressure. Iwas dehydrated, i live in arizona(aka center of the sun),so fluids are a must, especially with all the darn meds i have to take. so make sure your hubby is hydrated.
i also resembled the non-showering comments. when i came home from hospital, it was like pulling teeth to get me to bathe. i hated it. i think it was because i was scared. i'm good now, walking well. my left side deficit is improving every day. but those first showers were such a reminder of what the stroke had taken from me, i made it my goal to not take them and make my mother miserable. i'm 41, my 73 year old parents are my caregivers. i have recovered to point where i am driving and am back to work part-time. so i know how blessed i am. good luck with your hubby & his recovery. i wish you all the best
