Comfort’s Story

Site created on April 6, 2023

On April 5th, 2023, mom suffered from a hemorrhagic stroke. She was rushed to the emergency room.

On April 6th, 2023, she was moved to the ICU and put on life support. The bleed in her brain has been closely monitored, and an emphasis has been placed on managing her blood pressure.

During mom's recovery, she will have to endure an extended stay in the hospital to recover and rehabilitate. She has a long road ahead and will need all of the support that she can get.

Long time, no update!

The past two weeks have been a whirlwind. Mom's strength and stamina have improved so much, and she is finally HOME!

Dad has been able to work remotely, so he's been looking after mom while she continues to recover. 

Mom's eyes were affected by the stroke, so she has been struggling significantly with her vision. She has an appointment with a neuroopthamologist next month to see how they can address this.

Mom has also been struggling with finding the right words and expressing herself, but her personality continues to shine through in spite of that.

Thank you all for the continued support; our apologies for the delayed update!
