Hi all,
So we eventually spoke to a doctor after making a forceful request every half an hour!
She said a few things.
The clot was large, stuck in the right cerebral artery. Affecting mostly her moment as opposed to memory or thinking or anything like that!
There is a bit higher chance of another stroke, but she'll be taking medication to thin blood etc... This is despite the fact that they do not know the cause.
The sonar tests showed no irregularities in the heart, and there appears to be no restriction of flow in her arteries due to thickening or whatever. Also her blood contains very little cholesterol.
They are not going to analyse the clot, I think it's been sent to students to play with... But no information will come out way.
It looks like when Madi leaves depends on the rate of her recovery. She needs rest and sleep and that ward is so darn noisy and she is unable to sleep for any length of time due to incessant tests. I agree with Madi that she'd recover faster at home, but she'll benefit from all the physio and speech therapy (though that's improved a lot, and I'm hoping they'll throw in an elocution lesson or twelve (^_-).
The doctor said that she will have some physio tomorrow and depending on bed availability in Redhill she might be moved closer to home. Once at Redhill she will need some more physio before coming home for good!
