After my mom had her stroke, she watched a lot of television because she didn't have the ability to concentrate on reading and such. Even today, she gets more emotional than she used to and she is otherwise fine. I can only urge you to be strong during this difficult time and to make sure that you take some time for yourself. Even if it is only time for a hot bath and a good cry. Take the time for you.Vickiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08573890783110046304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13023910.post-1127811125136131662005-09-27T09:52:00.000+01:002005-09-27T09:52:00.000+01:00I hope you had a good 'date' :).

And I know it's low on your list of priorities, but I have started writing again, after a gap of years and years - may have something for posey when you feel like it again. Take care xAllyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15328795228297873415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13023910.post-1127803611949227932005-09-27T07:46:00.000+01:002005-09-27T07:46:00.000+01:00I know, I know.

He assured me, not very long ago, that he was not ever going to have another.<BR/><BR/>Don't underestimate the power of the written word - in the real world I'm actually quite isolated but here I have people who nod hello and people who stop to pass the time of day - I blogged once before that this (cyberspace) was the new village.<BR/><BR/>The hospital think he is rather withdrawn, too, and the information coming to John has not been great so far but this may be because he is not asking - they are going to try and sort out a meeting with his consultant, me and John tomorrow.<BR/><BR/>I'll be off to see him today and it's like waiting to go on holiday when you're are a child - I feel ridiculously excited - like a second date.<BR/><BR/>Enough of my waffle - thanks Vickie and everyone.She Weevilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01199515141545270582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13023910.post-1127768984266120382005-09-26T22:09:00.000+01:002005-09-26T22:09:00.000+01:00I think the feeling sorry is a normal trait after ...I think the feeling sorry is a normal trait after a stroke. It sounds very familiar. I wish there were way we could help you during this time.Vickiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08573890783110046304noreply@blogger.com
