feelings of horror at what i saw..........i almost wished she hadnt survived as i know the utter despair she would feel at having to live like this. ct confirmed it was an infarct on the left side of her brain - we are now playing a waiting game to see how much recovery she gets with her right side, if any, and more to the point if she survives

Really sorry to read this. Hope she pulls through ok.
Be strong!

OMG, Sue
I don't know what to say except that I'm thinking of your family and wish your mum a speedy recovery.
