Moments after my dad got out of the car, he suffered a major one. I was only 14 and alone with him at the time. Unfortunately after three weeks in the hospital, he didn’t make it. But since then, there have been such amazing advance in medicine.Feeling Beachiehttp://wwwfeelingbeachie.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6111371266122929131.post-75747502512626321952010-07-15T13:26:45.491-04:002010-07-15T13:26:45.491-04:00Oh man!

My grandpa had TIAs in the past but thanks to blood thinners he has never had a major stroke and is still hanging in there at 90 years old!<br /><br />When I first started college I majored in speech pathology and intended to work with stroke victims and head injury patients who had aphasia. Sometimes I wish I'd stuck with it.Badgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08612452005428621885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6111371266122929131.post-44837597797526534692010-07-14T22:17:28.885-04:002010-07-14T22:17:28.885-04:00I hope your Mom is okay.

I will share that my Dad had a really bad TIA where he didn't know where he was or what day it was, etc. He recovered from it quickly and never had another one. So it's very possible that your mom will, too. That's from Dr. Loretta for what it's worth. love to you and Cape Cod MomLoretta a/k/a Mrs. Pomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04214167409578390500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6111371266122929131.post-47670449423789151132010-07-13T23:06:47.644-04:002010-07-13T23:06:47.644-04:00Memere Levesque had Wernicke's Aphasia.. 4 yea...Memere Levesque had Wernicke's Aphasia.. 4 years of college were not a waste lol<br /><br />Love you Mom, and thinking of the family constantly.A Reminder to "Live"https://www.blogger.com/profile/06928447469746431589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6111371266122929131.post-78654978585150629662010-07-13T22:24:02.878-04:002010-07-13T22:24:02.878-04:00I've been through this recently with both of m...I've been through this recently with both of my parents.

Oh gees....make sure that you and your Mom ...NO!!! Oh gees....make sure that you and your Mom know the signs of a stroke and if she has another get her to the hospital IMMEDIATELY! There are meds that when administered within so many hours of a stroke that can help majorly! My Mom knew that she'd had strokes but wouldn't acknowledge them. By then it was too late for the meds.Gailnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6111371266122929131.post-71971664287998182632010-07-12T23:55:52.154-04:002010-07-12T23:55:52.154-04:00Sending good thoughts your way for a full recovery...Sending good thoughts your way for a full recovery.
