Might not be able to complete MOC too

I'm sorry for your mom and hope she'll recover soon. Stay strong!
 
Glad your mom is home. So sorry this happened. It's frightening. God bless you and your family.
 
Oh dear !! That was a scary experience. It was a good thing that you guys were around when it happened. O'wise it will be worse.

Yes, do concentrate on taking care of her now. But you & your family have to take care of your own self too. You have to be alert and all in order to look after her.

Sending lots of positive vibes & thoughts your way, Zakirah. :heartlub

I know how you feel, it was the WORST moment of my life when my step-father rang and told me my mother had a major stroke ... I swear the floor dropped away from my feet! But luckily for her it was in an area of the brain that she doesn't need for daily life. The doctors think its more of a long term memory part of her brain but they can't tell how much memory she has lost as my mum says if she can't remember it we don't know what's gone (we have no family in this country to tell her about little things from days gone by) .... all in all she recovered well and I wish the same for your Mum sweetie .. sending all the best xoxo
 
Thanks so much everyone for your support.

My mom is now under specialists care - for stroke and bipolar (she's having a manic episode). She'll undergo an MRI scan tomorrow.

As for me, I had a depression episode while sending my mom to this private hospital. I'm now admitted and my room is just next to my mom's. I didn't take my meds the day before sending her because if I do, I'd fall asleep and won't be able to wake up if she needs me. Turns out that it made my mood unstable.

Lesson learned this week - don't forget to take care of your own health while taking care of the sick.
 
Oh goodness! I hope that you can get your own medication back to regulated and feel better yourself. I hope that having your family around will help both you and your mom get back on your feet and back to healthy and feeling better.
 
Oh goodness. I'm only just seeing this. What a scary experience! Holding you and your mom in prayer and hoping that you both are back on your feet soon. :beat
 
Feel better Z! I hope you both will be getting regulated and feeling better soon.
 
That is scary to have to go thru that..((hugs)) I hope you get to feeling better too, and also your mom. Will keep you and your family in my T&P.
 
Oh honey!!!! BIG HUGS!!!! Yes, don't forget to take care of yourself too!
 
Thanks ladies. I'm feeling better now. My doc changed a med and increased the dosage of another med that I've been taking since 2009. I've also scrapped a page for a CT I'm on, so I think I'm good now. I have a lot to catch up on MOC. Will try my best :)
 
Ah... scrapping again is a great indication of feeling better. I'm so glad! I hope your Mom is doing better too.
 
Oh, Zakirah, what a rough week. I'm so glad you're doing better, and I hope your mom has a smooth and speedy recovery. (((hugs)))
 
Thanks everyone. I'm discharged now and feeling much, much better. I'm so ready to get back to scrapping again!
