Misdee - sorry to hear that things are no better with Peter. As someone else has said a clot on the brain that causes damage is a stroke. No change in his dx just a different term.

You probably know this but warfarin and aspirin act in different ways: warfarin inhibits vitamin K to prevent clotting (I think) and aspirin acts on the platelets and makes them less sticky. Hopefully both of them acting together will help prevent this happening again.

I hope Peter recovers from this latest problem. I think of you all the time.

Misde - I am so sorry about tall this. It just seems to be one thing after another for you both.

Don't know what to say except thinking of you.

Oh misdee....your all certainly going through the mill, I echoe everyhthing that tigermoth posted and hope things improve soon. ((((hugs))))

Sorry to hear your latest news misdee.

well i am going in later, my dad is going to sit with serena in the canteen (and no doubt have older ladies flocking around him again, because of the baby lol)

Peters morale is very low atm, and he feels useless and also thinks i'm gonna leave him, no matter what i say or do. He needs a lot of reassurence right now, and with me being ill since the weekend its been very hard going. Hopefully me going in today will reassure him a bit.

Hope so misdee. Give him a hug from us.

Misdee, sorry to hear your news.

Just a word to say sorry I mention Peter to go with you on your other thread to the school.
I really don't know you were going through all of this.
You poor thing!

Take care misdee

its ok lars, you werent to know. right i better go get a shower and dressed. I have also got to do colouring in with the older 2 before i go.

Thinking of you :-) xxxx

Misdee, so sorry When is this shit ever going to bloody stop! I wish there was something we could do, like wave a magic wand and everything be fine and Peter home.
Is anyone able to give you the likeliness of Peter being home for Christmas?

Thinking of you, Misdee.
xxxx

me too - lots of love

I hope your visit goes well today and you and dd3 feel better. Peter must be feeling quite isolated in there for such a long time, I hope he feels more secure soon. It is obvious to us how much you love him.

hope all is well misdee thinking of you

He is very down. His sight is bad, he can see things drectly in front of him only in his left eye, nothing to the left side.

Thinking of you all, Misdee x x x

I feel for both of you. You're doing so well.

I know this doesn't help him physically but I've just been seeing a patient who had some special lenses made for his glasses which help that problem. I've never seen them before but they seemed to help him.

Stay strong x

sorry should've said one special lens for the left eye

Hey Misdee, tell him that all of us are thinking about him. He mustn't feel alone, abandoned or forgotten.
