She had slight paralysis, but what was most devastating was the aphasia (see <a href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aphasia\" rel=\"nofollow\">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aphasia</a> or <a href=\"http://www.aphasia.org/\" rel=\"nofollow\">http://www.aphasia.org/</a>).<br><br>This incredibly articulate woman could no longer speak comprehensibly.  It was as if she could hear fully formed words in her brain, but they came out complete gibberish.  The frustration and depression was almost too much to bear -- for her and the family.<br><br>Unable to communicate, and in increasing decline of her faculties (overall weakened state, mentally and physically), she moved in with my mother.  My sister later had to move in as well to help take care of her.  For over two years my sister was a near fulltime caregiver, only getting breaks when my mother came home from work, tired from the workday, only to face the emotional trauma of seeing and caring for her own mother as if she were a child.<br><br>Treatments were futile, physical therapy was unhelpful, and our family didn't have money for external care.  It was a bad situation, and one from which my sister still bears scars.<br><br>In summary, I would say that, as difficult as this upcoming week will be, steel yourself for a much much more difficult time ahead.  Whether the damage from the stroke is physical, mental, or both, the effect on your mother will likely be dramatic.  Additionally, and perhaps more importantly, don't forget the collateral damage this will cause the rest of your family -- particularly if they were closer to her than you.<br><br>I will also use this opportunity to stress to anyone reading this the importance of Long Term Care insurance.  If you have senior family members, this can be far more important than life insurance.  The costs of in-home care, hospices, or live-in facilities are staggering and can financially devastate a family already in emotional crisis.  And these days, with the dramatic increase in efficacy of interventional medicine, the likelihood of needing it increases every year.<br><br>See <a href=\"http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/personal-finance/longterm-care-insurance-1103/overview.htm\" rel=\"nofollow\">http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/personal-fin...</a><br><br>Good luck to you and your family, Robert.<br><br>Bryan", "is_last_child": false, "can_reply": false, "down_voted": false, "real_date": "2006-05-08_22:40:56", "killed": false, "user_key": "eb377593756a30ceda5a75b11b15c2a9", "has_been_anonymized": false, "edited": false, "author_is_moderator": false, "from_request_user": null, "votable": true, "date": "3 years ago", "approved": true, "num_replies": 0, "is_first_child": false, "email": "", "parent_post_id": null, "depth": 0, "points": 0, "author_is_creator": false, "is_realtime": false}, "9639168": {"up_voted": false, "ip": "", "has_replies": false, "message": "Wishing your mom a speedy recovery", "is_last_child": false, "can_reply": false, "down_voted": false, "real_date": "2006-05-08_22:52:08", "killed": false, "user_key": "c767931cf307481fd22274c35b961f35", "has_been_anonymized": false, "edited": false, "author_is_moderator": false, "from_request_user": null, "votable": true, "date": "3 years ago", "approved": true, "num_replies": 0, "is_first_child": false, "email": "", "parent_post_id": null, "depth": 0, "points": 0, "author_is_creator": false, "is_realtime": false}, "9639169": {"up_voted": false, "ip": "", "has_replies": false, "message": "My prayers go out to your mother and you and your family.

I'm going to give it to you straight and without any bullshit.  You have to get on a plane and go see your Mom.  You need to do it right away, today!  If your Mom might die and you have not been that close then there is a reason for it.  You have to make sure that both of you have the chance to tell each other anything that needs to be said.  Think if your Mother died tomorrow and wasn't there anymore.  You mighty not be able to think of anything you want to say off hand but go anyway this is the stuff life is made of. This is your chance to deal with any issues and to be comfortable with her passing.  Sorry for what may seem like a heavy psyc comment...<br><br>These are just my feelings.  I read your headline about your Mother and it was the first thing I've ever read on this website, so if there are other posts related to this information that make me sound like an idiot, forgive me.  Also, I know your situation may be a lot different than mine.  I'm really close to my Mom but if something else has happened that can't be resolved between the two of you and if this advice is not appropriate please forgive me.<br><br>When my Dad died in a car accident I didn't know what to do.  There is no manual about what is right and what is wrong. I asked my Sister and she said I should fly down there right away.  I told her I'd look into flights and get there in a couple of days and she said \"Oh Joe, I think you better get on the next plane you can.  Go to the airport right now and get a flight home\".  I've often thought about that advice and I'm really glad that I took the advice and did what I could to get there.  It's worth any price, any inconvenience, to be able to say you did what you could.  Call it peace of mind.  I'm just trying to pass along some advice that I really appreciated.<br><br>Sincerely,<br>Joe<br><a href=\"mailto:joeput@gmail.com\" rel=\"nofollow\">joeput@gmail.com</a><br><a href=\"http://mightyjoesfree.blogspot.com/\" rel=\"nofollow\">http://mightyjoesfree.blogspot.com/</a>", "is_last_child": false, "can_reply": false, "down_voted": false, "real_date": "2006-05-09_00:06:23", "killed": false, "user_key": "8990bfdb417bc3c26a94aaaa16ea52f1", "has_been_anonymized": false, "edited": false, "author_is_moderator": false, "from_request_user": null, "votable": true, "date": "3 years ago", "approved": true, "num_replies": 0, "is_first_child": false, "email": "", "parent_post_id": null, "depth": 0, "points": 0, "author_is_creator": false, "is_realtime": false}, "9639178": {"up_voted": false, "ip": "", "has_replies": false, "message": "Robert -- sorry to hear about your Mom; I just went through something similar with my Mom over the past month.<br><br>As others have said:  take notes when you talk with the doctors; talk with your Mom about what SHE wants in the way of treatment (and have her complete an Advance Directive if at all possible); talk with the nurses, too -- they are your Mom's first line of defense and best allies while she's in the hospital.<br><br><br>Keep as calm as possible.<br><br>And I wish your Mom a refuah shleymah.", "is_last_child": false, "can_reply": false, "down_voted": false, "real_date": "2006-05-09_00:13:43", "killed": false, "user_key": "e3bbad26e750d773a625787577807a9c", "has_been_anonymized": false, "edited": false, "author_is_moderator": false, "from_request_user": null, "votable": true, "date": "3 years ago", "approved": true, "num_replies": 0, "is_first_child": false, "email": "", "parent_post_id": null, "depth": 0, "points": 0, "author_is_creator": false, "is_realtime": false}, "9639179": {"up_voted": false, "ip": "", "has_replies": false, "message": "Mate, sometimes its a shitty and unfair world.

Hang in there and remember that the love of family and friends can carry one through the toughest of times.<br><br>Remember that your body tells you things for a reason. My dad did the same thing ignored the symptoms and ended up having a heart attack. He is doing well now but these events should be a lesson to everyone to take better care of themselves. We often get to busy in our lives or put our selves to the side to take care of others. I try to tell myself on a regular basis not to ignore my own needs when it comes to my health but often find the “suck it up” attitude of a John Wayne era still pervading into my psyche.<br><br>We are all hoping for the best.<br><br>Sincerely,<br><br>John Anthony Hartman</div>\

My mom was a cancer-suspect for a good 6 months last year, and we learned a tremendous amount of information. (She is OK now).  Wish all the best to your Mom.</div>\

Talk about it with your Mom if she will, and make sure that she\'s made her wishes known. Keep in mind her welfare, act from the heart and you\'ll be OK.

Strokes can affect people in a variety of different ways, some lightly and others horribly.  When you get there take the time with her.  As you said, you two weren\'t that close, but at least you may have some time with her which is better than the alternative.  I lost my father last year unexpectedly, and we were not as close either.  I spent a long time filled with the regret of not having the chance to talk with him and try to bridge that gap one more time before he died.  Take some time off away from here and send in Bubba if you need to. We will definitely give him a run for his money.  You remain in our thoughts and prayers, and if you do take a break, please keep us posted.</div>\

She had slight paralysis, but what was most devastating was the aphasia (see <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aphasia" rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aphasia</a> or <a href="http://www.aphasia.org/" rel="nofollow">http://www.aphasia.org/</a>).<br><br>This incredibly articulate woman could no longer speak comprehensibly.  It was as if she could hear fully formed words in her brain, but they came out complete gibberish.  The frustration and depression was almost too much to bear -- for her and the family.<br><br>Unable to communicate, and in increasing decline of her faculties (overall weakened state, mentally and physically), she moved in with my mother.  My sister later had to move in as well to help take care of her.  For over two years my sister was a near fulltime caregiver, only getting breaks when my mother came home from work, tired from the workday, only to face the emotional trauma of seeing and caring for her own mother as if she were a child.<br><br>Treatments were futile, physical therapy was unhelpful, and our family didn\'t have money for external care.  It was a bad situation, and one from which my sister still bears scars.<br><br>In summary, I would say that, as difficult as this upcoming week will be, steel yourself for a much much more difficult time ahead.  Whether the damage from the stroke is physical, mental, or both, the effect on your mother will likely be dramatic.  Additionally, and perhaps more importantly, don\'t forget the collateral damage this will cause the rest of your family -- particularly if they were closer to her than you.<br><br>I will also use this opportunity to stress to anyone reading this the importance of Long Term Care insurance.  If you have senior family members, this can be far more important than life insurance.  The costs of in-home care, hospices, or live-in facilities are staggering and can financially devastate a family already in emotional crisis.  And these days, with the dramatic increase in efficacy of interventional medicine, the likelihood of needing it increases every year.<br><br>See <a href="http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/personal-finance/longterm-care-insurance-1103/overview.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/personal-fin...</a><br><br>Good luck to you and your family, Robert.<br><br>Bryan</div>\

My mother in law had massive strokes many years ago and still lived another 25 years so it is not a death sentence. Things to ask about are how the stroke is going to effect things like speech and thought processes. Physical paralysis is one of the easier things to deal with. Many times a stroke will effect a person\'s ability to talk and to process information. That is a larger concern in my opinion. It all depends on what part(s) of the brain are hit by the stroke.</div>\

You have to get on a plane and go see your Mom.  You need to do it right away, today!  If your Mom might die and you have not been that close then there is a reason for it.  You have to make sure that both of you have the chance to tell each other anything that needs to be said.  Think if your Mother died tomorrow and wasn\'t there anymore.  You mighty not be able to think of anything you want to say off hand but go anyway this is the stuff life is made of. This is your chance to deal with any issues and to be comfortable with her passing.  Sorry for what may seem like a heavy psyc comment...<br><br>These are just my feelings.  I read your headline about your Mother and it was the first thing I\'ve ever read on this website, so if there are other posts related to this information that make me sound like an idiot, forgive me.  Also, I know your situation may be a lot different than mine.  I\'m really close to my Mom but if something else has happened that can\'t be resolved between the two of you and if this advice is not appropriate please forgive me.<br><br>When my Dad died in a car accident I didn\'t know what to do.  There is no manual about what is right and what is wrong. I asked my Sister and she said I should fly down there right away.  I told her I\'d look into flights and get there in a couple of days and she said "Oh Joe, I think you better get on the next plane you can.  Go to the airport right now and get a flight home".  I\'ve often thought about that advice and I\'m really glad that I took the advice and did what I could to get there.  It\'s worth any price, any inconvenience, to be able to say you did what you could.  Call it peace of mind.  I\'m just trying to pass along some advice that I really appreciated.<br><br>Sincerely,<br>Joe<br><a href="mailto:joeput@gmail.com" rel="nofollow">joeput@gmail.com</a><br><a href="http://mightyjoesfree.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">http://mightyjoesfree.blogspot.com/</a></div>\

	 <div id="dsq-comment-message-9639225" class="dsq-comment-message">My husband &amp; I just went through losing his dad to a malignant brain tumor. I want to expand on the advice to take notes - BE AGGRESSIVE IN GETTING ANSWERS. And be aggressive in getting follow up stuff scheduled. Don\'t be rude, but also don\'t take "No" and especially don\'t take "we\'ll get back to you."<br><br>They won\'t. Period. Between the crazy schedules, the fractured delivery of medical "services" and the psychopathic situation of health insurance, no one will call you back and no one will follow up. My father-in-law DIED of a treatable cancer because not a stinking one of the medical providers followed up quickly enough that he could start radiation treatment in time. And the insurance comapnies dragged their heels. I am firmly convinced they would rather let someone die than pay for a procedure.<br><br>So keep right on top of the situation. Tag-team with your siblings so no one person gets worn out. Write up everything and repeat it back to whomever told it to you. Document dates, times, and names. And if they say "We\'ll do this later," your instant (polite but firm) response is "No. You will do it NOW."<br><br>Fingers crossed for the best possible outcome.</div>\

It was a long 3 months, trying to relate to her, working out what she could understand. She was angry, looking daggers at the nurses. The hospital here in Dublin wasn\'t great, but the staff were wonderful. late night vigils, coffee from a local all night petrol station. 3 things I would say to you Robert: remember to give her morphine (the junior doc. who was on the night she died didnt want to); it may/shoul bring you closer to your family, and to her; if it is curtains, it will knock you out for quite a long time ( 6 months and counting for me).

One thing about strokes is that our brains can be amazingly redundant and flexible, so you should never lose hope even if things may not be looking so good at some point in time.<br><br>In some hospitals you have to put pressure on doctors though in order to get a good and speedy treatment (timing is important).

You say you and your Mom are not close.  That is sad.  The reason is unimportant.<br><br>When I was 31 my parents died from cancer five months apart.  In 1991, at age 43, I survived a thoracic aortic aneurysm (85% who have one die a sudden death).  Since then I have made a much greater effort to stay close to those I care about.  I try to see the good in everyone and avoid being too judgemental.<br><br>I encourage everyone to use the unfortunate news of your Mom\'s stroke as a catalyst to connect or reconnect with people they care about.</div>\

I truly hope your mom has the same fortunate outcome.<br><br>The news was really rough for me, but we\'re taking steps to make sure he\'s ok.  Anyway, I hope everything works out for your mother...and remember...low sodium.<br><br>A side note:  I\'ve started an "extreme" low sodium diet and I\'ve already dropped about 5 pounds in a week.  I\'m aiming to get healthy over the next year and hope that whatever causes CHF hasn\'t already screwed me up enough that I\'ll be in the same shape as my dad when I\'m his age.  Just a thought for everyone...I think this stuff happens because of a lifetime of self "abuse" from poor diet and health.  I\'m 31 and I intend to stop this nonsense right here because even though I love my dad, this is the one way I do not want to be like him.</div>\

Please, don\'t always trust Dr.\'s.  My mom was admitted to the hospital on July 31, 2006 diagnosed with CHF, released from the hospital on August 02, 2006 with 4 new meications and on August 06, 2006, I received the worst phone call of my life...My 48 year old mother had died at home alone.  They are thinking possibly a heart attack or a stroke.  I am still waiting for the final results.  Tonight it will be 4 weeks since I got that horrific information and I miss her so bad I can hardly stand it.  I remember before she left the hosptial saying, don\'t you think you stay and see how the medicine works?  She told me the Dr. said it was fine and to come back in 2 weeks, those 2 weeks never came for her..only 4 days.  If you are still dealing with your situation - God Bless and Take Care!</div>\
