Brain hemorrhage... Bleeding into the brain..the bleeding is from the arteries supplying the brain.These arteries are very small and effected by many factors which damage the wall of arteries like diabetes ,hypertension etc.
Once these artries are ruptured then the particular site of the brain lost its function e.g vision loss,sensory loss ,motor loss and ....eventually death.
Well there is no specific treatment once the area of brain is damaged...the Nimodipine, a drug name is prescribed to avoid the spam of ruptured artery to avoid further damage.
Your husband only need supportive treatment I.e sideways nursing to avoid bedsores and aspiration pneumonia and healthy diet.
