Seeking experiences/advice for my mom, 59F, 30 day post-ruptured ACoA aneurysm that lead to SAH. Worried about her future.

Hi everyone, My 59-year-old mom had a ruptured brain aneurysm about a month ago. Her recovery has been extremely difficult with many complications, including 2 vasospasms

She is now medically stable she can open her eyes when spoken to and follow some commands with the right side of her body, but she is not able to speak. She has paralysis on her left side. They are now moving her feeding tube to her stomach which worried me as this means they deemed her unable to swallow by herself for the time being which makes me scared that she would be in this state of not being able to do stuff on her own forever.

I'm terrified about her chances of survival and her future quality of life. Has anyone been through a similar situation?

I'm looking for any stories or hope. Thank you.
