T O P I C R E V I E WPadre35Very painful for me, went to see Moms in the "recovery home"Last stroke took her speech awayWe sat and "talked" she is a pisces, I'm well my messed up chart, and she put her hand to her mouth and covered itWe looked each other in the eyes, and just talkedIf that makes senseFaith Padre35Faith, I think sometimes, lovers, soldiers and family just do not need to speakNo words needed so to sayaquaguy91When my mom got mad at me words never needed to be spoken. It was a hot cup of STFU for this gemini mars in the 3rd. aquaguy91I hope your mom gets well padre.Padre35I apprecaite where you are coming from AG.For me however, as youngish man used to babysit for a couple who were friends of mineA baby more or less, she could not speak so she'd communicate via pinches and touches and going to sleep etcBit different seeing your own mom doing the same thing.Life comes in a circle AG, never forget thatPadre35 quote:Originally posted by aquaguy91:I hope your mom gets well padre.Well Brother, what Moms would say is "you are taking this completely to seriously!"Did not appreciate the lol stuff, also know you.Which also misses the point of my OPSometimes, words are not really neededaquaguy91Padre,Was not laughing at you.

No worriesSuspect this is one area most youngish folks fall down on, it's not what you say it is how you say it, intentions are great, it is how they are sub communicated that matters aquaguy91Padre,I know what you are saying though. I was 13 when my grandma passed on. Went to see her in the hospital and she could not speak as she was hooked up to a machine that was helping her breathe. I just held her hand for awhile and her firm squeeze and eyes said it all. I will never forget that moment for the rest of my life.Padre35As I've said no worries, this thread may not last, rather my point is not the life and death sort of nature of end of lifeRather how ppl can just click with someone else in the outside the net world..w/o saying a wordGranted we live in a world of Tinder now, stillBellaFenice Sorry to hear about the situation. It is hard when words cannot express the emotional magnitude of a situation. The power of expression and body language is incredible, and this shows that despite what your mother has been through, it will never break the love between you.Odette PixieJane Randall ikja quote:Originally posted by Padre35:Very painful for me, went to see Moms in the "recovery home"Last stroke took her speech awayWe sat and "talked" she is a pisces, I'm well my messed up chart, and she put her hand to her mouth and covered itWe looked each other in the eyes, and just talkedIf that makes senseI totally understand you.I've been posting around the website that this last year has been difficult for me; and one of the reasons is because on 28 Nov 2013, I came home to find my dad unable to speak as a result of a severe stroke.

I remember spending a few hours today asking my dad basic numeracy and literacy questions to try and get his mind working abit quicker etc. It definitely helped; but I would say that aphasia is a barrier. When someone you love experiences a stroke, it becomes a test of how much you knew them before it happened. Because you're able to pick up on their emotions, even though their communication skills are not 100%. ------------------When in doubt, ask questions. ❤Sun: ♊, Asc: ♏, Moon: ♈, Mars: ♈, Venus: ♉, Mercury: ♊, Jupiter: ♋ungumudaOh I'm sorry for your situation Padre35 and ikja.

Last stroke took her speech away
We sat and "talked" she is a pisces, I'm well my messed up chart, and she put her hand to her mouth and covered it
We looked each other in the eyes, and just talked
If that makes sense
No words needed so to say
For me however, as youngish man used to babysit for a couple who were friends of mine
A baby more or less, she could not speak so she'd communicate via pinches and touches and going to sleep etc
Bit different seeing your own mom doing the same thing.
Life comes in a circle AG, never forget that

Well Brother, what Moms would say is "you are taking this completely to seriously!"
Did not appreciate the lol stuff, also know you.
Which also misses the point of my OP
Sometimes, words are not really needed
