Confusion

[TonyWalker]

Hello All, e
               I had a stroke two years ago and now get two daily visits, I have poor mobility and live alone. I was having confusion issues before the stroke, I now find it pointless watching tv as I can't absorb anything, but today I amazed myself, I managed to make a sandwich, I did it logically and it worked. I've been housebound for two years now, that I can cope with, but my main question is, will I continue to improve. I already had a form of dementia (encephalitus) and the stroke seems to have made it worse. Even writing on here is so taxing and computers have always been in my life. I welcome your thoughts on this. Thank you. Tony Walker

Hello TonyWalker. Thanks for finding our forum and posting. That's fantastic you had such a good day and reclaimed some independence in taking care of yourself properly. It must be very hard on you. I think that this is a reminder that you can continue to improve and likely will. However, you may have good and bad days. There is voice activated typing. You could have someone show you how to use that and then would be able to communicate here and elsewhere easier. We hope you come back to let us know how you are doing.
