My mother had a massive stroke March 15, 2008. She is paralyzed on her right side, cannot speak and is incontinent. It is very heart wrenching when you don't know what she is trying to say. We don't know how much she knows or how much she understands or comprehends. She hates wearing the depends and tries to take them off and has done so successfully. I wanted to know how can you tell if there is anything else going on with her? Could it be dementia? Should she be seeing a neurologist on a regular basis and if so what kind of tests would he do? Her right side that is paralyzed seems to bother her like it hurts. Is that possible? I'd like any information that anyone can give me.
Thanks!
