Communicate Stroke Victims Communicating With A Stroke Victim?

Communicating with a stroke victim? - communicate stroke victims

My father had a stroke and we all know, is paralyzed on the right side. He has difficulty swallowing because of this and tries to talk to us. She babbles words, but more importantly, we can not understand. He said, used a whole sentence and phrases, but the words are the same, when to leave them. We want to know what you need, and when he explained with the letters of the alphabet magnets. I do not know if you do not or can translate the writing. Pray for us, he tried very hard. Good ideas that people have tried in the past, it would be a blessing for us. He insulted if you asked him what, but it is only recently (before 3 weeks, 4 August 2006) OT & PT working with him in the nursing home. He has 85 years of age. Thank you all! God Bless

First, sorry to hear your father
PT and OT are useful for foot and lower extremities (PT) and his upper extremities (OT train)
What is also needed to help speech and language therapy to the ground.
Please note that the movement is in the brain. can be with him, speaking, reading and writing and spelling. each victim of the shock is different.
what he says he had difficulty swallowing, so I'm very surprised that the speech is not working with him to a risk of aspiration.
God Bless

I am pleased with your father, sorry ...

My grandmother has suffered several blows before. Do not worry, I'm sure your father will be recovered through a proper diet, exercise and medication.

I know that the initial disappointment for the patient and the family. However, all the problems with time and understanding can be solved.

In the first period to communicate more frequently with my grandmother through pictures or pictograms. It just for what she wants. You can also try to try to slow the conversation with your father and to makeout to say what you want ...

Hope that helps ... referred

May God be with his family at this difficult time ...

I'm sorry and I know how bad it is for youall but believe me, it's so frustrating for him, do not you can imagine, because I've been there and I know. This probably means everything he says, is a blackboard and chalk are to operate, can work. Sometimes we doodle with your other hand to him. I am sure that almost angry, if you can not understand. this is so bad, I do not think that the work of the magnetic letters, but I think they could. Things are a little game for kids is a glass house, milk, biscuits, etc all play think drink may try to say, and it can gather and relax and the words begin to flow again. I wish you and yours, and I will now speak a prayer in the name of Jesus!

Testing a portable device like the Palm Pilot, which is more expensive, with large buttons, or paper and pencil .... use in his left hand so that it readalbe can be ..... If you can first have a strong will, able to communicate again, only needs time to learn, paralyzed on the right to speak. Patience .... try even more frustrating for him, as you ....... Decifive soon, what you say .... I invite you to use short sentences and baby talk .... if you want. .. Good luck and God bless.

My mother is a victim of stroke paralyzed the right side to ..... It took a long time, but we came up with the language of our own little sign, if he wanted a photo of the hand through the waves on the glass lenghtth profitable. If I wanted to throw a few fingers look like legs, and the Andes. but first we had to point a pointer to what I needed, and when it did, and not necessarily in a good way for him to know that I am, I have always felt very unfortunate because we would not like a child feel. deffinetly have its hard to do justice to both sides. their reality to his father in his face and needs. waiting patiently, time, and do everything ok! I wish you and your father, all my best. I know this is better!

I have never experienced what you feel now. My suggestion is to "Baby Einstein". Try to learn these things like hand gestures (most of which are capable of taking with one hand) My niece and my nephew 1 year old 2 years to communicate using a "solid basis". Search Baby Einstein tapes, can help. I guess, because as you said you do not know whether you have reached the same letter magnets. My prayers are with you and your family. Moreover, if the above is not possible, my mother was not able to communicate at all to 85 years. I would talk to him, and his eyes. Respond to meet the person, you may be wondering, yes and no, they are able to, they can also be linked comprimising unworthy.

My father had a throat cancer from smoking, and when he came outside the hospital, everything seemed to be equally out of his mouth. First he gave a pen and paper and just write the important words in a sentence and asked, "Have \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ u0026lt; item>" and finally understood a few words with him and he will be able to to clarify his words a little better. Good luck and God bless you too.

bring a slate with a visit from his father, their answers to questions that will write to communicate to talk as if nothing had happened, so you feel like a normal person to be able to return to you

Good Luck

All we can do is to stand there and let him know that she loves him. Natural Impotence is pathetic, if you do not communicate with someone you love. I hope that over time have been solved these problems. Meanwhile, be there and remember everything that needs no words or the translation, is love. He feels and has to be said or written. God bless your family and I consider them all in my prayers.
