My dad came down with GBS back in the seventies. Damn near killed him. Have you heard about the GBS Survivors Association? They are worth checking out.

He's dying.
Of old age.
He came down with GBS back in the seventies. It was so bad he was completely paralyzed and on a ventilator for several months. It took a while and otther then some neuralgia in his hands, he recovered and lived a full,active life afterwards.

Most patients recover completely and without long term issues, but not always. My dad was completely paralyzed and,other then losing his sense of touch in his fingers, made a full recovery.
It also takes a lot of physical and occupational therapy to recover. You don't have to have it but it definitely speeds things up.

They used high top sneakers on my dad to avoid the foot drop thing.
