Welcome

This blog is my account of my father's Wernickes stroke, also called a 'cerebral vascular accident' or in my father's case, an "ischemic stroke". I hope that my blog helps or gives some insight to this terrible event. I will post links as I come across them to give more information or give direction for help if anyone is interested.

Bad Wernickes

August 31. Let's just say that this Wernickes stroke is a bad thing. Every day has been a challenge. I thought maybe I had bit off more than I could chew. Last Wednesday, at 7 am, dad was getting up from his bed. Probably called out to me, by the way, my new name is 'abeeb', one time it was 'mother'. Anyway, I was in the back yard watering my patio plants, thinking dad was still asleep. I guess he needed help, so he reached for his "Help, I've fallen and can't get up" button. Needless to say the paramedics and fire department weren't happy with us.
