We have a doctor's appointment tomorrow. Dr. Chen will evaluate her progress and determine when he will operate on the other two aneurysms.
We have a few options for our next step. Mom may come live with Sonya and I to receive outpatient therapy or she may enter a residential brain care facility. The therapists do not believe she is ready to move back to her house.
I read last week that most healing after a stroke takes place during the first 6 months. Most patients do continue to improve, but not as quickly. I believe we are best served to "suck it up" and do as much as we can to help her improve during this period.
We all want Mom to be in her home, but we want to her to be home in the best shape possible.
There are lots of variables right now, but wanted to put the options here for you to see.
