Hi All,
This is salvationannie's daughter. I apologize for the worry or concern that was caused from my Mothers last posting. She is indeed receiving thorough treatment and care from a team of skilled professionals. We were informed at her appointment on 11/27 that during surgery her frontal lobe was cut through. This has caused her reasoning and reactions to be altered. She is not able to deduce the meaning of anything, long or short term; and her emotions are greatly effected. One of the main functions of the frontal lobe is the ability to recognize a future consequence from a current action. This is a struggle for her currently, as she is unaware that her upright position or fast motion will cause pain in the near and far future. Imagine being unable to process the emotions that your body is producing, yet you know they are present. This is what Sal is currently experiencing. The inability to understand her pain and exhaustion has caused frustration which leads to yet another emotion that her brain must work to recognize.
With all of these factors Sal is doing very well in her recovery. She is able to speak in a way that is understandable. Her movement is not unstable; she is walking up and down staircases and through the household daily. Like every recovery it is a matter of gaining back the strength and health that was previously present. It is a process, but in God's time and by His Grace Sal will be healed.
Blessings,
Jessie
