R. B. is an 80-year old English woman who is visiting a friend in the United States. One morning her friend noticed that upon awakening, R. B. had slurred speech, a R-facial droop, and was disoriented. She was transported to the hospital where a CT scan confirmed the diagnosis of intracranial hemorrhage. Because of the location of the bleed, surgery was not possible and over the next couple days R. B.’s R-facial droop progressed to a totally flaccid R-side. R. B. was transferred to your rehabilitation facility for therapy. Ten days after the initial insult, R. B. still has some confusion, memory problems, difficulty swallowing, slurred speech, and profound R-sided weakness. She is hoping to be able to return to England soon.
