perrycornish Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Today I had a real morale booster An old friend and one who was there for both my partner and me when I had the SAH, came to see us and her first words to me were 'Wow you look so much better and really alert' Simple for her to say but what a lot it meant for me If you have had a morale boosting moment do tell us , I bet it will 'lift' us all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tina Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 Hi Perry That lifted my spirits just reading what you posted....how lovely for you...i can really appreciate how good it made you feel! Mine was when i could smile again...sounds silly....but the right side of my face was paralysed...eye shut and could not smile......i did my exercises everyday....and at about 6 months.....one morning Kissed my hubby goodbye and smiled........and he said....go look in the mirror.....you can smile again Being a smiley person.....was a morale boosting moment for me! Take care love Tina xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janet Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 Hi Perry My biggest morale boosting moment was about six weeks after my SAH I had also suffered a third nerve palsy that had completely closed my left lid. Imagine my joy when my lid started to open on Christmas day of all days. Took a bit longer to regain proper focus in that eye but was seen as a miracle by me and all the family.

paul99 Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 i know that it doesnt really apply to me but when someone told me last week that lins growling was lin trying to join in the conversation we were having i felt that a long time ago but to have someone else say it lifted me so much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perrycornish Posted March 13, 2009 Author Share Posted March 13, 2009 Paul, I reckon it very much applies to you! Why not,indeed, you are just as much a survivor of SAH as we all are, to hear something supportive like that said of your very dear Lin, must have been a very precious moment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul99 Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 perry when someone says that about lin and there have been a few times someone who hasnt seen lin for a long time have said something not only boosts me up so much but gives me faith that i havent imagined it yes it does boost me up no end and when the surgeon told me lin deserves the chance that really did burst the dam with me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
