Mom suffered a second stroke in her life, life and death decisions

My mom had a stroke when she was 40 years old, which was more serious and left her hemiplegic for half a year, but then she miraculously recovered and was able to run and dance, and even fell in love with square dancing! This is the second time, she is 52 years old, I did not expect a sudden and suffered a second stroke.

Everything happened in a dark and cold night, my husband suddenly received a phone call from Dad, said mom fainted, need to send to the hospital, my husband rushed to get up and briefly and I said the situation is to go out, I'm breastfeeding the child, coaxing the child to sleep, I heard the news I am a little bit of a thunderbolt feeling! I wanted to call my husband back to go with me, but my son was still breastfeeding in my arms and was about to fall asleep. The little boy is still because of a serious cold only the day before yesterday from the hospital for six full days back, the body is not yet well, and suddenly left certainly cry more than noisy night, may be the body will be sick again, not to leave and really worried about his mother. The time is short, the husband can not wait for me, and finally decided that the husband first rushed to see the situation and then come to pick me up!

At one o'clock in the morning, I finally came to the hospital to see my mom, she inserted an oxygen tube, wearing a monitoring device, eyes closed tightly, lying quietly there, my husband said that from the time of fainting to the present has been in the sleep, has not woken up! I began to be a little afraid, on the way here, my father has told me, the doctor's initial judgment that this is a stroke, recommended conservative treatment, but this may miss the best time for treatment leading to lifelong paralysis, the best time for treatment is within three hours after the stroke, such as if the injection of a kind of blood-soluble needles may be very effective, but at the same time the side effects are also very large, and may lead directly to brain hemorrhage or even death! The probability of success of this kind of first aid is less than fifty percent, which is a really tough choice, due to the fear of risk, we finally listened to the doctor's conservative treatment plan!

"Paralyzed" was second only to "dead" in my fear! I had so many scenarios of paralysis flying through my head, I couldn't imagine that it could happen to my mom!

I hesitated for a moment, I went up to the mother close to gently shout, "Mom, Mom ...", the voice of the rapid, nervous, my husband wanted to stop me, but I just want to wake up my mother, I did not think that not a moment later, my mother really opened his eyes to see me, but his eyes are stagnant, unable to say a word, I talked to her over and over again. I talked to her over and over again, wanting her to at least blink to show that she understood, but she still didn't respond, except for the occasional eye roll. I wanted to cry, but I didn't want my mom to see me, I was afraid she'd worry, and I still believed she knew everything, but just couldn't express it for the moment.

Dad fetched a basin of water because mom had become incontinent and now her pants were covered in poop and we needed to clean her up. I first wipe her face and hands, wipe wipe, my tears are like a dam broken flood straight out, I choked, I did not expect so early I have to bear the pain of the possible loss of their own mother, mom is only 51 years old!

Mom, you said that when the grandson grows up a little bit to take him to travel around, you want to miss the appointment?

You said you wanted to see your grandson grow up, go to kindergarten, elementary school, junior high school, high school, college, and even study abroad, and to see him get married and have children, have you forgotten?

I'm a clean freak, but I didn't feel disgusted when I was scrubbing my mom's body and taking care of her urine and feces! While scrubbing, mom actually opened her mouth to speak, "No, no..." she chanted sharply and nervously, while saying so, she also used her hands to stop, and her feet also began to move around uncooperatively. Seeing this, I was a little excited, because, mom was reacting! Slowly, my mom spoke more, from intermittent one or two words to whole sentences, and I was as happy and excited as when I see a child speak for the first time! Yes, my mom is slowly starting to clear her head, and she can move her arms and legs, she's definitely not paralyzed! My mom told me to go back and put the baby to bed, and I let out a giggle and repeated the exact words to my husband, who had a speechless look on his face at me, and must have wondered in his mind how he could still be laughing at this point in his life! I was really happy, the kind of joy that is lost and found, and I felt that every word of my mom's was very amusing! I am not tired of chatting with my mom, although she may have to say a sentence many times, and I also have to repeat a sentence many times, but still have a good chat.

Fearing that my mom was tired, I urged her to sleep well, so I stayed with her quietly and watched her, and I couldn't get enough of her!

Although they are 31 years old, but since they have their own two children, the care of the mother a lot less, suddenly feel very sorry for the mother, remember when I was a child for the first time to eat a hot dog feel very like to eat on the night to buy a run all the way home, just to let the mother also tasted a hot hot dog! I used to love and care about my mom so much, but now I'm neglecting her. Mom, this time you must be warning me to care more and be there for you in the future! I remember, please get well soon!
