    I look after an 85 yr old lady with Parkinson's, she also has diabetes as well as a heart condition. I'm not a nurse, just a carer. Close to the same times of day she will have what I described to the professionals as an episode, shaking, feeling very ill, loses control of her bladder. She says she feels she is having a stroke. Years ago I had suddenly lost some memory of the person I worked with and previous conversation also what my job was. I was at work. It took over an hour to become normal again. Is this a silent stroke?
