Shoaib Ibrahim shares his father’s health update amid hospitalisation; says, ‘The past week has been very difficult’
“The past week has been very difficult because I honestly did not know what to tell everyone. I was unsure whether my father’s condition was improving or not. But today, things are looking better. He is responding much more than before. He is not speaking yet. Speech will take time. Gradually, he will begin speech therapy and physiotherapy again. The physiotherapy will be a little different from before, but both therapies will start when the doctors feel he is ready. The best part is that when I met him today, he smiled and responded to me. Earlier, I felt as though he could not hear me, but now he reacts when I speak to him. I have to stand close and speak clearly, but he understands and responds. He smiles, laughs, and even tries to speak, though he cannot do so yet. InshaAllah, that will improve with time.”
