Neil Hi,

I come from a big family, My Dad and Brothers always sang in pubs.....Women/Wives always indoors ......and Parties after pubs turned out mainly round Mum and Dads house.

When I had my SAH I saw my Mum, Dad and Brother (deceased).....I do not know if I imagined it but it made me happy to hear my brother sing to me while my mum would not talk to me, she kept pointing to my hubby and daughter............My Dad had a net over his face and kept looking at me and saying "Shhhhh dont tell ya Muvver and laughed.

I felt so happy to see my family so I cannot feel sad, until I saw my Sarah and hubby Al....I feel so bad for what I put them through.

I cannot walk very well but I am getting there...and I feel so happy to see my Husband and daughter the rest of Family again .

Keep smiling and things will start looking up ...sing a song ...treat yourself....What I am trying to say is if possible try and have a

smile on your face even when you feel down, hard I know, I get down but crying makes my eyes red....lol

Hope you feel wonderful soon Neil

Sam,

My daughter helped me a lot after SAH...I used to dream she wanted me to squeeze her hand, She was doing excersise with me but I wasn't with it then...Time has moved on and where I couldn't do much for myself...after my shunt I have come on leaps and bounds.

Every day you will get stronger......Do things for yourself.(what you are able to) and keep smiling

Good luck Sam and sing it makes me happy

I cannot remember anything until I had shunt fitted...but do not know if I dreamt it but I told someone

"How can I drink a lot when my husband is too quick at it ,,,,,,I don't get a look in"

Did I say it or not ???

Thanks Win. I am a bit nervous that it seems like I'm feeling better too quickly, if that makes any sense. I am not under the delusion that all is well, however, and am not so naive as to think I won't have set backs. But, I feel pretty good today. With everyone's support at home and from friends, with the guidance and support of all my BTG friends , and with a lot of faith and prayer I feel good about my recovery thus far. :

As long as you feel good Eric....do not worry..as we are all different..Keep singng and smiling it helps

You are strong some are stronger than others....So keep getting better every day

Good luck Eric in all you do and love to your Family

My pals say how well I am coming on...I feel lifted, but it has taken from July 2009 to Sept 2010 over a year to remember what

happened to me. ..ie why did I get so many germs attack me in hospitals....I asked the Surgeon this,he replied

"when you go into the brain you get germs"...so why did they put me in normal ward and not HDU....every time time I went to normal ward I was rushed back to HDU...first with ventriculitus then with Sepsis....Finally with MRSA of the skin....

The only thing that kept me going was my brother singing to me...and me chasing after my parents....

But when I saw my hubby and daughter then I knew I had to go back to them and say bye to my Mum Dad and brother Barney

Sorry if this sounds morbid , But I am happy to be alive and with my daughter, husband , brothers and sisters I Love Them All

and They Love me..(sometimes as I can be a pain)

So if you are down remember We Made It and gissa smile

My hubby kept holding my hands away from tube I had up nose.....I only wanted to blow my nose lol

My Sis visted me after my return home....Before shunt ...she said I took toast off her plate and put it in my

bed..she thought I was hungry so left in my bed....I wonder if I ate it !

Keep Happy all

Love

Winb143 .......alias fatty

Liz,

Forgive me for laughing at your reply...but I was like you also do not remember anything.....and if what I dreamt is true..Sorry Nurses ! !

I saw a Railway man coming up to me and told him he is not putting any tubes into me....Don't ask me why a Railway man !

Then when I got ventriculitus, I remember telling the Nurses "You hurt me and I am telling my Mum, Dad and my Doctor" I must have been a pain lol

My Sister used to come and sing to me with my sister in law...We used to have a sing song poor other patients.....

It was hard for my family but I was oblivious of what went on around me......and I only know rude songs ..lol

Keep happy Liz and All and Sharon chin up xx

Love

WinB143 xx

Hi Sharon,

Sorry to hear about your Mum....I had SAH in July 09..I was away with the fairies most of the time.....Stay by your Mum...she needs you like I needed my daughter..Now we argue just as we always did lol......Keep smiling and watch your Mum...you are worried about her . ..remember it's natural.....my daughter argued with nurses but in a nice way about me not seeming right in myself...Hope your Mum gets well soon and you two can have a heated debate just like my daughter and I do..Keep smiling and all will be well for you all .....I kept swearing and singing..mind you my Dad taught me rude songs when young ..lol

Oh also I had shunt fitted in 210 thats when I started getting back to some normality, still get forgetful but mostly ok
