Susie, it sounds like your mom is going to be ok, with all of the love that you all have for each other, working together makes it easier to cope, bless all of you, and I also hope that she is a real woman and proves the doctors wrong. Bev

So sad for you all...... but tremendous support you are giving each other. Take care, Joy

Susie Thinking of you, your mum and your family. ((((((HUGS)))))) for you all Juliexx

susie Dont give up hope that your mum will come through this, 4 weeks ago my mum was in hospital when she took a massive heart attack and was left for 40 mins without oxygen to her brain the doctors gave us a 99.9% that she would not survive and if she did she would be left totally brain damaged she was in intensive care for 3 weeks with absolutely no response from her but we never gave up on her and by some miracle she is fine and getting home next week, Her muscles need alot of work but with determination and love we know shes going to be back to her old self shortly the doctors cant believe it either the fact that she has no damage to her brain after 40 mins without oxygen now i believe in miracles and i will pray for your mum and your family even though im not religious i feel it helped me.

Hi Sorry to hear about your Mum. Thinking of your family at this time. If you are really desparate perhaps you could arrange a genes meet/painting party for people to help :-) Penny

Oh Susie, I am so sorry but so proud of your Dad making that decision..... me not very good with building stuff but I weald a wicked paintbrush so if i can help PLEASE let me know!! Love to you all xx

Liz and i are so sorry to hear about mum Susie,but it sounds as though you already have things under way,we had that problem with the grandma ,and had her at home for ten years knowing she was happier in a house and not a hospital.Will be thinking of you all.Fred.

Thinking of you and your family, especially your Mum. Luv'n'hugs Sue xx

Susie, I'm so sorry to hear about your mother. I don't know how old she is, but my friend Mary is about 68/9. She had a very very bad stroke last summer, her 3rd or 4th. She lost her speech, and her sight was not good, and she cried alot. But she is a very determined lady... sounds like your father! She lives alone, although her daughters and her son are around and look after her, with the aid of nurses, carers and home helps. She was a long time getting better, but to be honest I have not spoken to her for quite a while. She is too busy going out with her family. God bless your mother and father and I'm sure they will win through. Good luck to you all. Deanna X

Susie, as you know it will be hard at first but you'll get there. You're obviously a loving family and you'll all be there for each other. Keep on with that physio and who knows.... Thinking of you all.

Oh Susie, I was in tears with you but I think it is the right deciision to have your mum at home, she and your dad will be happier and it will be easier for you and your family too. Thinking of you June xx

Susie, I'm thinking of you all, and having a little smile at your Mum with the crosswords, give her, and yourselves plenty of hugs and cuddles, and like you say, all pulling together, you will do the best for her. Thanks for keeping us updated, you take good care, Chris :)

Susie, it is amazing what the love of family can accomplish, it will be a long haul but with all the love and support you have wonderful things can happen. Good luck and prayers. Deb

Sad to hear the news about your mum Susie, but what the doctor told you is the worst case scenario - with such a loving family and her husband supporting her so well, I am sure your mum will come on in (tiny) leaps and bounds. She will do so much better in a familiar place with all she knows and loves around her, good tho the care is at nursing homes, so you just all feel positive and get those alterations sorted, and she will be back within the bosom of her family before long I am sure. it will be easier for her care with everything on the level. Will be thinking of you all and I am sure you will keep us posted of progress made. Liz

Hi Susie, I am so sorry - my thoughts are with you and your family. (((((hugs))))) Jill xxxxx

Oh Susie, I just want to give you a cuddle too. You are lucky to have such a wonderful family - you will get through this together. Thinking about you all. Lots of love and hugs Jack xxx

God bless you all Susie, it wil be an uphill struggle but your mum and dad are worth it. My mum wanted to be at home and we managed, she only went into hospital for the last few days for treatment and pain relief. Just give both of them a hug from me and as much love as you can.

All my thoughts are with you,
