@Toystory2025 It sounds like Emily is doing remarkably well & you must all be so relieved considering what you were told a few short days ago. I am so pleased for you all.
In relation to Emily not liking her face. She is probably still in shock and a bit of disbelief & seeing herself will remind her of the stroke. As @EmeraldEyes has said it should start to return to normal in time. Massaging gently won’t do any harm though.
I have linked in a couple of posts which mention repatriation. Not sure if they will answer your queries but worth a look.
I would try not to worry too much. These things have a habit of sorting them selves out & as the time for repatriation gets nearer you’ll no doubt get the help you need. You could always try speaking with the British Embassy in Thailand. They will be used to dealing with these sorts of things.
