His cardiologist said that “the worst is over” regarding his condition. However, his neurologist said that he has to undergo rest for six weeks as well as rehabilitation and therapy for his strength and normal movement to be back.
Arnold Clavio has started with his therapy. Among the body parts that are exercised are his arms, hand, thighs, and feet. Because of the bleeding in the left side of his brain, the right side of his body is weak. On his first attempts, he still had no balance and was feeling groggy.

The affected part of the brain of the veteran news anchor is his thalamus which is responsible in transmitting motor and sensory signals to the cerebral cortex. It also controls sleep and alertness.
