Sam, in her long post, revealed that it was in October 2020 that her father had a left-sided stroke that gave him right-sided weakness and damage to the speech centre of his brain. This meant he could not efficiently communicate verbally, nor read or spell. He was little competent and very much himself, but could only get a few words correctly. Her heartbreaking post had spoken on her dad undergoing therapy, and it read:

"As many of you might know about strokes, it is possible for him to gain these functions back and we have found him excellent care in Kansas City for speech, occupational, and physical therapy, but for now, we have been warned by his Neurologist that he may not do voiceovers again. My dad still remains in good spirits and his extreme stubbornness has helped him already show improvements in speech. He is fully on board with me sharing this and he will see anything you guys post. Lots of love from our family to yours. Here are some recent photos of dad."
