This site brings me closer to my mother. She would want me to connect to others who suffered what she suffered.
If you have any questions, just ask me. I studied strokes for 2 years. I’m no expert, but I think I knew more than her doctors. Seriously. I lived it for 2 years. My mother didn’t have memory issues, or any issues with muscles/pain/tingling after a few months. She did have sporadic confusion at times, and became very irrational about everyday things, as time what by. She also had jealously delusions that my father would leave her and put her in a care home (Othello Syndrome). Her apathy was beyond belief, and her OCD over temperature (hot and cold) would sometimes last 2 hours or more. She also paced like crazy at night, and became a complete insomniac (maybe slept 1 hour a night or less), bickering with my father about nothing. Unreal.
