    Just to let you know my Dad is doing much better - I actually spoke to him last night and he sounds shaky but seems ok. My mam asked not to come until Friday (tomorrow) so thats what we are going to do.

    He's not had the results of the CT Scan so they won't confirm either way if it is a stroke or a TIA thingy. But Mam (she's a nurse) says if it was a stroke it was a very minor one 'cos he is doing so well.

    Can't tell you all how much relief I feel. I don't want to think about him getting old and the stuff that went through my head yesterday was horrible.

    Thanks a million for all your support and kind words. It mad isn't it - people who I've never even met being so genuinley (yeah yeah spelling!) nice, kinda restores your confidence in the world.

    Oh I missed this. Best of luck to your dad.

    get going girl. your dad will be in fine hands - your mam needs you. maybe stagger visits with your sister so that she has someone there over a longer period.

    best of luck.

    My wife had a TIA. Fully recovered etc but scary at the time. Go, and you will sleep better.

    My dad had a TIA and a stroke.

    Obstinate b*gger won't admit it though - even though there is a scan that shows where it was!

    My dad had a minor stroke about 15 years ago, If it's only minor then usually they make a full recovery as the brain soon rewires itself. I wouldn't worry too much.
