Thank you everyone for your prayers and well wishes.  I am sorry I didn't respond to everyone but I have been running on warp speed. 

My mom did have a sciatic/TIA stroke not really sure what it means because I have not even had the time to research it yet. She will need minimum PT and more aggressive OT for a while.  She was released today and is now home with me.  She can walk with assistance but has limited control of her right arm and even less of her right hand.  She can not wright, but she can read and point to things just fine.  She is in FULL control of her mental faculties, lol.  She does get frustrated  and angry at times which is to be expected.  She is doing great and we are all very happy to have her home with us and back to her old self.

Thank you again for every ones prayers they were heard and fulfilled.

On another subject Kris and I decided to spring for the 4D ultrasound to find out the gender.  We go in on the 28th when I will be 15w1d.  So everyone think
PINK!!

I am glad that you were able to take your Mom home and hopes she gets better soon. My father had a stroke and like your Mom was physically, not mentally, impaired. It can be very hard on someone, especially if they are used to being independent. I hope for the best. Good Luck on the u/s! Thinking PINK!

Wow- I totally missed this. My prayers are with you and your family. I hope she regains use of her hand and arm soon. That has to be very frustrating.

Hugs,
Angie

P.S. Thinking pink for you.

Please keep us updated with your mom. If you ever need to talk let me know. My grandfather was a quad for 14 years, my dad, myself, and my dad's aunt took care of him.

Prayers are still with you and your family.

I"m glad your mom is home and doing well.  I work at a rehab center for geriatrics and I've seen therapy do lots of good things for patients!   Make sure she works hard with her therapists and even more make sure she has good therapists! :)  

I'll be hoping you join me on the pink team come the 28th! :)
