Book Description

For my mother's life Stroke what to do? On August 16, 2013, my mother had a severe stroke, which prostrated her in such a way that the medical professionals gave me and my sisters the worst forecasts. They told us that she most likely would not survive the stroke. And they added that if she survived this cerebral infarction, it was most likely that she would remain in a vegetative state. Perhaps they warned us because the situation was very serious, perhaps it was because they were afraid of giving us false hope. But my mother is a fighter and not only did she survive her stroke, she recovered and was able to make her life again. It was not an overnight miracle, although there were recoveries that, with time, effort and dedication, made a miraculous recovery. What happened to my mother is the dreaded ischemic stroke. It was a transient ischemic accident, but it left its aftermath. In any case, with the struggle of all of us, of her five daughters, and of the love of her family and friends, she was able to recover. This book will give details of how it happened, what events preceded the stroke, and what perhaps we could have considered more. We sisters are going to talk about the challenges that meant for us to see helpless the strong woman my mother was, who always represented an example for all of us. Whether we call it a transient ischemic accident or a stroke, the reality is that what is put to the test is not only the health and recovery capacity of the affected person, but the ability of the whole family to face a situation that occurs unexpectedly. Do not lose hope facing the ischemic stroke, it has not won it yet. But you must put your hope ahead of all negative ideas and visualize the goal. Although it is far away, one has to consider that our path will take us towards our goal, and if there is a very big obstacle, it is still necessary to advance little but continue in that direction before taking another path that takes us to a place that we do not really want to reach. When a stroke happens, the quality of life of the affected person and their environment undergoes several changes. The stroke appears from one moment to another and can leave serious physical and psychological consequences, depending on how quickly it is treated. Family members and even friends experience moments of uncertainty and great concern. To help the affected loved one, you must face new situations and invest a lot of time, patience, perseverance and a great amount of dedication. And of course, Love. With love as fuel the engine of our hearts can run at full speed and for much longer. Join us in the details of this story, in which an injury to the brain caused by the interruption of the blood supply is counteracted with a lot, a lot, a supply of affection. Love is the essential medicine in situations like this and serves as a palliative when other methods do not seem to work. It can affect anyone, and there are many famous people who have survived a stroke, such as Sharon Stone, Kirk Douglas, Montserrat Caballé, Jean Paul Belmondo, Joaquín Sabina and others. So let's not lose hope.
