I've read at the earliest it can take 3-6 months to recover. Sometimes even 2 years.
If your loved one recovered, how long was it until you saw them regain their basic comprehension abilities?
Any personal stories would be helpful.
*edit*
Sorry I forgot to mention why I am asking this. My dad a little over two weeks ago was airlifted because he was having a hemorrhagic stroke. He was on his deathbed two weeks ago, now he is in rehab. He can walk (kind of) but he doesn't understand any instructions. His speech is half garbled and I think he thinks he still works but I am not sure. (He has been retired for some time) However he can play his harmonica still. ???
I'm praying he can recover further but almost being somewhat realistic that he may never. The bleed on his brain never hit the other side of his brain.
I have a small family and this is my first brush with a loved one going through some shit. I'm sorry to anybody who has to go through this.
