He spoke at the end of the recent True Anon/Chapo (w Hasan Piker guest) live show with like a very short prerecorded cameo. He sounded basically like his old self there.
Obviously I don't know anything more specific than anyone else outside his family/friends, but strokes now days can be recovered from almost 100%. There might always be something "off" about the person post-stroke, but it's generally expressed how we saw Fetterman (as a public example) immediately after the stroke with aphasia. With therapy the symptoms can be almost fully overcome in a lot of people. With all medical stuff obviously it's statistics and just because like 80% of people live basically normal lives doesn't mean... well, you know. But based on Amber, Will, Chris, Felix's statements over the past year or whatever and the fact he can even make a video at all. Seems promising.
Here's a pubmed paper on stroke recovery if interested. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8189855/
Heart related medical science has really come a long way even in my lifetime. When I was a kid, a stroke basically meant you were paralyzed for life. My grandmother had one and she used a cane until the day she died because her left side was so weakened. Now days, my next door neighbor had a stroke and I see his old ass power walking with his dog every morning. So, anecdotal sure, but it's also sort of the reality now. (Obviously assuming a person has access to modern medical facilities and trained physicians, etc.)
but strokes now days can be recovered from almost 100%
Aphasia management and recovery has come a considerable way in the last decade and a half, but people who have strokes young do face a range of issues:
higher risk of diabetes
~20 percent chance of death in the next 20 years (excluding deaths in the first 30 days), usually from further strokes
~20 percent chance of anxiety
~25-50 percent chance of depression
~50 percent chance of long term cognitive impairment in at least one domain of cognitive functioning
up to ~50 percent experiencing further pain (depending on the measure used to define recurrent pain)
However for young people with strokes the functional outcomes (i.e. ability to live independently) are pretty good, only ~5-20 percent reporting poor outcomes and most people being able to return to work
The current and last US presidents are in severe cognitive decline and they're doing basically fine promoting the US empire
Is his brain okay? Do we know how lucid he is after the stroke?
well he hasn't started supporting Israel so he's at least recovered better than fetterman
Fetterman just needs some percussive maintenance. Hit him to adjust the Overton window.
rack 'em
