My daddy had a stoke at 56 just over two years ago. He was in a coma for a very long time and actually had to have part of his skull removed in order to give his brain room to expand. This picture was taken when he was just coming out of his coma. He wasn’t talking or opening his eyes but I asked him to squeeze my hand and he did. I still can’t look at the picture without it giving me a lump in my throat. I hope you appreciate it as much as I love it.

What a precious moment, very powerful. Bless his soul. His hand say it all. Thanks for sharing …
Thank you. It is still one of my favorite moments.so hard to see him paralyzed on his left side now but at least I still have him.
Thanks for sharing. 🙂 Had similar experience with my grandma when she was down with stroke many years back.
so very hard isn’t it. It does teach you how precious life is and I haven’t been the same since. I try to live each day as best I can.
Yes. You have to be strong and take good care of yourself. Before taking care of others.
Hands of love, beautiful entry
Thank you very much 🙂
What a heart-rending time. Glad to hear he made it out of the coma – and that you were there for him.
That is such a special picture! So sorry about your dad.
Thank you very much. A very tough time but he is still with us thank goodness.

Wow. What a powerful photo. What a precious treasure you will always have of that moment.
still brings tears to my eyes.

Love this, and the fact that you were able to capture this moment!
It sounds odd but he held my hand for a long time so I took out my phone and took it. I’m so glad I did.
I’m glad you led me to your page. It is similar to mine and the feelings are no less evident. The picture of my Great-grandmom and I, was also the result of a stroke.
I am glad your Dad made it, and that you took the picture. Sometimes things like this are good to have to remind us what we have and later, how affected we are by things we don’t have anymore.
At the time I wasn’t sure if I should have taken it because it was such a precious moment but I am so thankful now that I did. I look at life so differently now, I appreciate everything so much more and realize how precious life is. Thank you for sharing your picture, I know exactly how you felt at that moment. The world stopped and it was just about you and her just like it was with me and daddy.
This website is pretty cool. How did you make it !
