Re: National Stroke Day 28th Oct
I too fear strokes more than anything .Re: National Stroke Day 28th Oct
We have strokes running through our family, my husband had one a few years ago took a year to fight his way back into work. Much reduced his earning power over the years since.Re: National Stroke Day 28th Oct
I worry also about strokes as my mother had three before the final one which was so massive it left her like a vegetable .... unable to swallow thus needing her lungs pumped several times a day, unable to eat or drink so a feeding tube had to be fitted into her stomach, unable to speak or walk. After 3 months in hospital she was moved into a Nursing Home .... she died 10 days. To me it was a blessing to see the end of her suffering.Re: National Stroke Day 28th Oct
So sorry that a few members have had first hand experience of this awfully cruel, debilitating illness. It's a thing everyone fears.Re: National Stroke Day 28th Oct
