Oh no Sarah, devastated by your news. My sincere condolences to you all. This will take a long time to sink in for many on BTG. R.I.P. WIN

Hi Jan. Seems like your going through what many have already gone through--difference, you've put Pen to Paper--or these days Fingers to Keyboard. That's a good thing, already it'll help other's that are in the same boat, realise there not alone. Maybe a visit to your local support group might help--take John along also. They should be open to Carers, Partner's & Family Members. Personally, I'd use my GP, as a last resort. (shall not say why, but if you want to know, just pm me.) Sounds like your Family are in Denial of what you've going and been through. Maybe they can't come to terms with what's happened, they need to be sat down and told. That's easier said than done--I know that for a fact!! You've stated that you've been arguing a lot more lately, bet this is down to frustration, and depression. Think a lot of us have been there. Stay Strong, Stay Positive, never think your ranting on here--Advocacy & Empathy is plentiful, it's FREE, and no Appointments Needed. Take care

Cheers Win Think I've helped a few over the past few years..plenty of room for more.

Yes Jan---willing to help if I can. The information I source, is direct from our Stroke Team, which I've been voluteering with for the past 16 years.

I've read a few of these post in the past, and most suggest making sure your liquid intake is kept up. In this I mean WATER. Read back on past post, I'm sure this will help you. Don't worry, your not the only one to go through this.

Happy Anni-versary Sarah Phew--and I thought I was busy---onwards and upwards

Don't know what you've been told about this--hope this link helps http://www.brainandspine.org.uk/craniotomy I know many that have had this operation, I'm sure it could be arranged for one of them to talk to you.

Well done Win and as Val Dooican would say--Walk tall Walk tall, walk straight and look the world right in the eye. Sorry Win---it had to be done;-)

Sending positive vibes~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Really can't think what else to say

Great News Louise These forms are far too long winded, and far too many people get involved. Glad you've finally got yours sorted.
