My parents don't live with me (approx 250km away). My mother had a minor stroke and fell recently resulting in a further stroke shortly thereafter. She is unable to communicate and I love her soooo much it breaks my heart. She is in an old age home (frail care) - unable to feed herself, talk properly and immobile. How do I communicate with her. She speaks mainly with her eys (so loving as always) and I want to make it better trying to understand, but it is hard not knowing what she is saying. If anyone can help I will really appreciate it as I feel as though I have lost my guardian angel .....
You might also want to check out this article by our community moderator Carol Bursack, who gives some tips on communicating with parents when they can no longer speak. We hope this gives you some peace of mind. And remember, you are not alone.
