my mother

[MEG218]

my mother is 51 years old. it all started when her doctor took her off of her blood pressure medicine and her blood pressure was up in the 200. at my  brothers reception she fell to the ground. she was then taken by ambulance to depaul. they had said she had a seizure. she could still speak, everything was functioning. she began to have more headaches and seizures and they found out they were strokes. they did lots of m.r.i. and brain scans. they said there is not much more they can do until she becomes consious again. she was moved to barnes hospital. she has blood clots in the brain and has been unconsious for 6 days now. eating from a feeding tube, cant talk, cant move her one side, she has begun to slightly open her eyes, and she will scratch her head and move her legs. they took her out of the icu and put her in a normal room, and now they  are wanting us to  look for a nursing home for her to relocate to. my family is under so much stress and just want her to be consious again. we are praying everyday for her to get the strength to wake up. she is a strong woman whom has 8 children that are by her side to help her get through this.
