Zahava remains in a stable condition in the stroke ward. Her alertness remains the same, spending most of the time resting or in some kind of semi-conscious state – it is difficult to know exactly how much she is aware of. She does open her eyes occasionally and shows deliberate communication with us, but tires very quickly.
In terms of her body, she takes minor steps forward requiring less support from medicine and equipment, although she still requires a trachy in her throat to help deal with secretions.
Our focus now is building up her swallow strength so she can eventually have the trachy taken from her throat. Beyond that we hope and pray that her brain is finding a way to rewire passed the damaged areas so she will regain more consciousness and be able to talk again one day.
Thanks once again for your ongoing prayers and support, we have only begun to climb this mountain.
Yaro and Phil.

Hi Yaro.
Praying for Zahava, a wonderful lady, also for you and Phil.
Thanks for updating Yaro.I am praying that soon your mother will recover from this stroke. All the best to you and your mother
I have been a client of Zahava on and off for the past 7 years.
In September last year I started going through an amazing and scary journey of transformation. There were times when I didn’t know up from down.
Zahava was helping me with this – she seemed to have some knowledge of what I was going through and she has been very, very supportive.
Over the years Zahava and I have had some very deep talks about the spiritual journey.
Zahava said to me so often, when I was lost and scared, “I’m here for you.”
I say the same to you now, Zahava. I don’t pretend to understand why this has happened, but I’m with you. Journey well.
Sending you, Phil, and your Mom strength and peace as you continue this difficult journey.
Wishing both Zahava and her mum a speedy recovery. It is no doubt a difficult time for the you and your family. Have faith and our prayers and good wishes are with all of you.
Kind regards

I was wondering how your Mum is getting on? She did a couple of my counselling assessments earlier this year.
Give her my regards and thoughts are with you
Hi Yaro
I check your mums webpage every day for news. I understand how busy you must be but would love to know how your mum is doing. Could you give an update please. I really hope there has been an improvment in her health for her and the family too. Is your mother up to visitors yet? Would this be possible?
Take care Yaro and my best wishes and thoughts are with your Mother.
