Yes, she is not paralysed.
While I was holidaying there, I tried to get her around, like visiting relatives etc. She also complained of giddiness. Which makes her quite reluctant to go out.
Thing is there are limited activity for not-so-healthy elderly in Jakarta.
Will think of a way, thanks for reminding me of this. Active mind is a happy mind!Hmm psychologist dint help cos my mom thought all they did in the room was 'talking', no medication prescribed, etc... The consultation fee not very cheap either.
Thanks Philippa. Do let me know if you have other ideas.
> Is she able to get around? No paralysis etc. Then getting her out as much as possible. She may be very scared that the same thing could happen again. Can her doc talk to her about the feasibility of it happening again? Is she on meds don't know if it was a bleed or a blockage as this would determine the meds. Why will a phychologist not help?
