Welcome to BTG Lauren

I hope your mother makes a good recovery, it's early days for your mother but please feel free if you need any advice we all understand what you and your family are going through.

Let us know how she is getting along. Take care.

Hi Loz, your Mum will improve day by day, my daughters were very worried about me too, I was very confused. I guess your age about the same age as my daughters, they kept a diary for me to read when I got better - it helps with recovery too. Give it time and slowly she will improve.

Hi Lauren - I have just posted to you dad (my mum had her SAH 8 months ago) - to speak honestly her prognosis was very poor but she has come through with flying colours with memory problems being the biggest issue. She is now able to live independently again. Your mum sounds as though she is coming along very adequately but I fully understand the worry and anxiety it puts on carers. You mum will probably have no recollection of her hospital stay so can I suggest you keep a diary so that when she is ready you can tell her all about if and it helps to keep a track on the ups and downs. Any questions just ask but as others who have posted that have gone through this themselves it is a very long process but your mum will get there.

Hi Lauren

So glad you found BTG, it has been a godsend to me and my family who read most posts. Mum is very early in her recovery and it is a journey for everyone.

I wish you and all around you the very best.
