I am Dr Usman, i am here to answer your query
your report says that your father has suffered from stroke which means that the blood supply to the brain has decreased leading to death of the affected brain tissue. allthough the samage is irreversible but your father will do good and eventually his condition will improve provided he taked anti coagulants and blood thinners .
hope this answer your query thanks
