EXCLUSIVE Heartwarming moment man who was left unable to speak because of stroke suddenly talks after reuniting with wife

A woman has shared the heartwarming moment that her dad spoke for the first time in nine months after he reunited with his wife. Sara Adame, 30, from Charleston, South Carolina, explained during an exclusive chat with the Daily Mail that a debilitating stroke left her father, Juan, unable to communicate in 2020. It occurred right after his wife, Sherrie, who struggled with addiction, was sent to prison, and the tragic medical emergency left him completely withdrawn and out of it. 'He didn't speak anymore. He didn't really recognize anybody and he definitely couldn't talk to us or tell us who we were or who he was,' Sara explained. 'He was very nonverbal.' For nine months, Juan seemed as though he was in a constant mental fog, and his family believed they may never see the man they once knew again. But all of that changed when he laid eyes on Sherrie after she was released from prison. Footage of their emotional reunion showed Juan laying in bed at a rehab center looking uncommunicative. But suddenly, his face lit up as Sherrie entered the room. He opened his mouth wide with excitement before he said the words, 'Oh my God.' He then pulled Sherrie in for a warm embrace, hugging her tightly and kissing her. The moment was extremely 'overwhelming' for his family, who were convinced they would never hear him speak again. 'It was very overwhelming when he became not only alert upon seeing her, but verbal as well,' recalled Sara. 'He picked right back up where he left off in love with her. It shocked us all to our core because we didn't know he was still capable of these emotions. Love really does prevail.' While chatting with the Daily Mail, Sara explained that her parents met when Sherrie worked at a 7-Eleven and Juan 'would come in and get his morning coffee before work.' They got married in 2003, during a stunning ceremony in Puerto Rico 'surrounded by family.' Unfortunately, Sara said Sherrie ultimately 'couldn't battle her demons any longer' and 'fell into temptation and relapsed' soon after the video was filmed. She ultimately passed away in 2021, and Juan died a one year after her. But Sara still holds on to her parents' emotional reunion as proof that true love does exist. 'I just hope that everybody can understand that love conquers all, if you have somebody love them right now,' she urged. 'I feel like everybody's out here searching for the next best thing, but in sickness and in health and poor and rich in free or shackled, love will be the only thing you remember in the end. 'So love right now. Be present and intentional. There are so many distractions in this world. 'It's important to be there for who is sick as they were there for you. There are so silent battles in the mind even if unspoken that applied to my mom and to my dad in different ways. Just be kind.' Sara shared the clip to TikTok last month, where it went viral, gaining more than 4.8 million views. 'Watch the moment my mom comes home from prison. My dad had a stroke while she was away and had become emotionally/verbally unavailable until she moment,' she wrote in a text overlay. Thousands were moved by their story and rushed to the comment section to share their thoughts. 'The way he lit up when he saw her. It's all we should ever wish for is to be loved like that,' one user wrote. 'If that don't prove Love heals all!' another added. 'The look in his eyes is what pure, true love truly is. This is so beautiful I am not okay right now,' someone else penned.

White House furious at top secret leak on Iran nuclear site bombing as Trump faces impeachment calls: Live updates

ICE arrests 15 Iranian migrants Immigrations and Customs Enforcement agents have arrested 15 illegal Iranian migrants since Sunday. One of the migrants admitted to having ties to Hezbollah in Lebanon. An FBI insider told Fox News agents are 'closely watching' for any 'sleeper agents' in wake of the US strikes on Iran's nuclear weapons facilities. 'DHS has identified and arrested known or suspected terrorists and violent extremists that illegally entered this country, came in through Biden's fraudulent parole programs or otherwise,' ICE tweeted earleir today. 'We have been saying we are getting the worst of the worst out—and we are. We don't wait until a military operation to execute; we proactively deliver on President Trump's mandate to secure the homeland.'

Israel-Iran ceasefire could be a diplomatic triumph for Trump and see him remould Middle Eastern politics

DONALD Trump's style is diplomacy on steroids. There's a concept known as Trump Time, which is three times faster than everybody else wants to move at. 5 5 Generally, that creates disasters, but given the law of averages, that sort of disruption sometimes works out. Despite his F-bomb attack on Israel and Iran for breaking the ceasefire, the events of the last few days could turn into a diplomatic triumph for President Trump. He took a massive military risk at the weekend to bomb three Iranian sites using B-2 bombers carrying their Massive Ordnance Penetrator bombs, alongside 30 Tomahawk cruise missiles fired from an Ohio-class submarine, probably the USS Georgia cruising somewhere under the Arabian Sea. If US action has not effectively destroyed the Iranian nuclear programme, it has certainly set it back a long way. When the Iranians responded with an attack on the US airbase in Qatar in a rather careful and measured way, we all wondered what Trump would do. When he suddenly announced an overnight ceasefire, presumably negotiated over the telephone, it was fairly astonishing – Trump Time again. But immediate ceasefires tend not to be very stable. Ceasefires usually take some time to negotiate so everybody knows what's supposed to happen and when it's supposed to happen. A monitoring mechanism is needed to make sure it doesn't fall apart by accident. 'They don't know what the f**k they're doing!' Trump rages as he blasts Israel AND Iran for breaking hours-old ceasefire Even though Trump claimed Israel and Iran 'don't know what the f*** they are doing' and ordered the Israelis 'do not DROP those bombs', he effectively put an end to this immediate round of warfare between them. If that all holds, whether you like Trump or not, you would have to say that's a very positive result. He could now be in a position to preside over a remoulding of Middle Eastern politics. It could all go spectacularly wrong, of course, but at the moment President Trump goes to the NATO summit with a sense of triumph in his Middle Eastern policy. Twenty-four hours earlier it looked as if this issue would wreck the summit by taking it over and exposing enormous differences between Europe and America. Now he might be in a position to leave the NATO summit with a triumph in the Middle East and having strong-armed the Europeans into putting 5 per cent of their GDP into defence. That would be a great headline to take back to Washington, where the plaudits would be loud indeed. It's all high-risk diplomacy, of course, that could go wrong pretty quickly. But that's the way he operates. 5
