Mother is on ventilator.

My mother is on ventilator due to right sided ischemic stroke post her mitral valve replacement surgery in Narayana hospital Bangalore. She has been on ventilator since 27/05/2026. She can move her right leg and right hand fairly well. But her left leg has little movements and left hand is immobile. She opens her eyes on calling, takes her tongue out on commanding. She responds to commands. Her ct mri earlier showed brain swelling but now it has reduced due to medicines. But still she can't pas her extubation trial. And now doctors planned for tracheostomy. I m confused and scared how long it will take for her to come out of ventilator support. What are the recovery and survival chances?

I wonder if you could help me with the ideas.If you can please do tell me what's the most tiring thing in your routine or something that strains you up so much.The more the consents the better, because only with variety I can come up with a better and best idea.I hope you can help me as I don't have much time to submit the manuals.Thanku.

Astigmatism, Development Delay

Hi, My son is around 3 years old and has a development delay. For a few weeks we have noticed that he put pressure on one corner of the eye with finger and then moved his both eyes to one corner and focused on objects which are little far. We visited the paediatric ophthalmologist today and he told us there is refractive error in both eyes and the dilated eye exam needs to be done after that he will be prescribed the number. Also, My kid had Dengue Shock Syndrome when he was 4-5 months old. How much do we need to worry about refractive error issues? Does he need to wear spect's lifetime? Does Dengue Shoch Syndrome have anything to do with this refractive error or my child's development delay? Also, he has some redness in the eyes, so the doctor prescribed moxicip d, moxicip, pataone eye drops for one week. Are these safe? And Does both adults and children both have the same drops?
