My Mum had a stroke at 39

[MooMooz]

Hi, I just wondered if i could get any advice or anything really. My Mum had a stroke two years ago at 39 years old. She has been left with cognitive and emotional difficulties. I am just wondering if anyone has recieved any support with this and if so if they don't mind sharing how they got it.

I'm thinking a neuro psychologist would be able to help your mum. I saw one after my stroke and she gave me some coping strategies ro help with my short term memory problems.

Hope this helps. Aftercare is thin on the ground after brain injury but the Stroke Association, or Headway helpline on freephone 0808 800 2244, may have some ideas..

Best wishes for better days ahead for your mum. . . Cat x
