He had undergone first Brain surgery on 30 Dec 2009 to remove the blood clots from his head after followed and verified through MRI and CT - Scan. The operation was paritall successfully. Doctor was unable to remove blood clot however he has put pipe to remove fluied . After few days his condition getting worst and he bacame UNCONSCIOUS day by day and water was coming out from his mind.
On 16 Jan 2010 had undergone another surgery called VP Shunt which casued him lots of problem ( memory lost, Speech disorder, parlysis from right side).
Dad was discharged from hospital on 2 Feb, 2010. WE have appointed a physiotherpy doctor at home which is coming regulary since the day he was discharged

After concern with few more nurologist and nuro surgen we went to one more CT -Scan which doctor state his clots is removing slowely and Shunt is working fine.

However his latest conidition getting worst day by day. He become so vloient and STUBBORN. He is neither ready to meddication nor willing no to follow physiotherpy. Sometime he is crying and other time he become so offensive and regret for somthing.

Please advise what i can do now. How can his present situation improve. How will his speach is clear and how will his memory come.
