  1. hi guys thanks for the intros the hospital did just completely discharge my mum with carers twice a day no physio no nothing i had to chase them for everything even as far as having grab rails put by the front door as luck had it i work in this field so i was able to pull a couple of strings to get things a little bit quicker but her discharge from the nuro unit here was a night mare they didnt even help us get her to the car she can talk fine!!! she never stops lol!! she cant walk properly yet so we arranged for a wheelchair for her to help us get her out and about but because she is constantly dizzy going out sometimes is difficult but we manage each day as it comes her short term memory is shocking and it does cause problems because we are liars when we say shed said things etc but its also amusing sometimes because she can only remember from six weeks ago she thinks shes only been awake six weeks when infact its about five months!! we have good days and bad like you guys said and yes its very fustrating and upsetting at times because she doesnt believe what we are saying to her and it helps that we have a large family for back up at times lol other than that we just take it as it comes and take it all on the chin its a good job me and my brother are thick skinned thats for sure anyways rambled on enough for now its just nice to get it out of my system lol thanks in advance x
  2. hello everyone im looby and i have found your website while trawlling for information about Subarachnoid hemorrhages my mum had one in november of last year but prior to that also in november she suffered from 2 minor bleeds leading to the Subarachnoid hemorrhage she was taken to theater pretty much with in a couple of hours after it happened altho it was made worse by the fact that previous to the sah she was on a plane on her way home from spain after been admitted twice in to a spanish hospital who accused her twice of been drunk even the airline said that she had been drunk and wasnt going to let her fly but luckily her friends could prove that she had been to the hospital she was in theater for ten hours and they managed to stop the bleed and remove 50% of the clot that she had developed around her brain it was so large it spread from her left ear to her right they also drained fluid from the front of her head that was caused by the pressure at the back she got discharged from hospital on the 18/3/13 and is slowly getting better glad i have found this website becuase hopefully you guys will be able to give me and my mum some insight into what should and shouldnt be happening at this stage i understand everyone is different but any insight at all would be fab thanks in advance and anywhos hello
