T & P- My uncle

My uncle had a stroke this morning.

Strokes are serious, but even more so for my uncle.  He has cerebral palsy and already can only use half his body, and that half has been affected by the stroke.  He is in the hospital as they try to determine the cause of the stroke (blot clot?  clogged blood lines?) but if he cant regain use of the good side of his body, my family will have to put him in a nursing home/assisted care facility because he won't be able to take care of himself.  He is only 49. 

Prayers are appreciated for the doctors to figure out what is wrong, and for his body to come back.  Also, he just feels like he is helpless and is becoming very depressed.  So prayers for his lifted spirits are also welcome.  Thanks ladies!  His name is Neil if names help you put a little personal view on things.
