I am terribly sorry to hear about your friend.
Some people will have a full recovery and some not. My DH's Grandmother had a massive stroke about a year ago. Honestly it should have kiled her. She has almost made a full recovery. She has some minor trouble with her short term memory and can't write like she used too but all in all she is still the same old spunky woman she always was.
So sometimes it entirely depends on the individual.
