My husband was just diagnoses with this after 3 weeks in the
hospital. We have been told that this is permanent and we need to
look for long term care. He is only 31 years old and we have a 3 year
old son. This is very difficult to try and grasp, it's very scary. I
came across your site while i was trying to get info on the syndrom.
Reading the notes from some members helped. Any input from anyone at
this point would help so much! The doctors can't seem to say much at
all.
