[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You are reading too much into this. I’m the distant relative and when my dad had his first stroke, I took the wait and see approach. When he had the second, I was in the hospital for 4 days and nights relieving my brothers, and was there every week after that. What good would it have done for me to rush down and all of us be exhausted? They handled it and then tapped me in so they could attend to their work and families. Then I left and did the same.. Parental health issues are a marathon, not a sprint. The best case scenarios have people working as a team and not keeping score of who is where at what time. I hope her stroke is mild. Prognosis for these things is generally wait-and-see as the full scope can only be known over time. Don’t burn yourself out, or burn bridges, so soon. It could be a long road.
