hello, my name is emma and my husband paul had a stroke last week, he is 26, it was out of the blue and a shock to everyone, we went to bed as normal on the sunday night and then we got up for me to go to work on the monday and his stroke happened at 6:45am, i was upstairs getting ready to go to work, and he had taking our little boy down stairs to get him a bottle, he said he sat on the couch and started to feel drunk he then started shouting at me to coe and help him, i ran downstairs and he had collasped on to the floor, i took my son upstairs to calm him down, he was frightened and paul had climbed up the stairs and was wondering round, his was talking and walking round like he was drunk, i phoned the ambulance and thought he was over reacting
he walked from our house to the ambulance, we got to the hospital at 7:45 and he just got worse and worse as the day progressed, he had a CT scan which didnt show anything, which made them believe he hadnt had a stroke, so at around 2pm he was transfered to a different hospital to a nurology ward and was rushed down for another CT scan and had dye put into his brain and this showed he had a clot at the back of his brain, and needed surgery urgently, by this point he could hardly talk and move, i was told if he didnt have this suurgery he would be dead n hour but they only gave him a 50-50 chance of surviving, he got through the surgery and is now recovering, which we have been slow but he should make a full recovery, he is still on the nurology ward while they try and find out why this happened.
im sorry this got so long, thank you for reading, i have so many questions running round my head.
