The doctors were responding to that first stroke properly with the use of blood thinners. That comes with a price. The price is the increased risk of brain hemorrhage, which is what happened in this case. They shouldn't be criticized because it has not been proven what is the best choice of treatment for patients with these holes in their heart. - Dr. Siller Quotes

They may start seeing several observations that are of course better than nothing, but the big picture is still going to be that he's had a massive stroke. The damage is already there and I still would stick to the opinion that his prognosis is very, very poor even if he survives. - Dr. Siller Quotes

If (the bleeding) was on the left side of the brain, it will undoubtedly involve his speech and comprehension. If it was on the right side of the brain then it's possible he could emerge from this with the ability to converse and make some decisions. At a minimum, he's going to be terribly incapacitated with at least a paralysis on one side of the body. - Dr. Siller Quotes

In my opinion, and that of any other stroke specialist, you are not going to see this man return to normal. It is just not possible. - Dr. Siller Quotes

We are basically hoping he survives and that he has some kind of ability to get some rehab so he can have some useful function again. But we are talking about the basics, we are talking very basic things. The complexity of this man, and what he did for a living, this is not to even be considered now. This is absolutely unrealistic at this time. - Dr. Siller Quotes
