Subject: RE: BS: Advice on Strokes
hi guys
my mom is 53 and had a stroke about 3yrs ago. She is doing good but she has lost alot of her mentality and memory. Me and my dad take care of her. I just wonder why she acts like this? I mean I love her and I am just glad I have her but she used to be my best friend (and still is) but I cant really talk to her because she doesnt understand. I can tell her things but its like she doesnt comprehend at all. She also forget really quick. She will watch "friends" all day and not even remember it. I am just scared b/c I am 21 in college and have two jobs, I am with her every chance I get but I have things I have to do to so I want her to be able to take care of herself, She wouldnt fix herself something to eat unless someone fixes it or tells her how to. I just wondered if anyone knew any memory tricks or advice I could use to get my mom back!!!
