Dear lybrate-user, I suspect your father had some sort of brain injury such as stroke, TBI, brain tumors etc considering his one sided weakness. Duration of recovery depends on lots of factors such as type of brain injury, severity, duration and how much recovery has already happened, age of patient, co-morbid medical condition etc. I'm unable to accurately prognosticate in your father's case due to limited information given. You can contact me directly should you have further questions.
