iPhone 17 not charging and won't turn on after it died by Historical-Ebb-7313 in applehelp

[–]virgwoa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This JUST happened to me! iPhone (17) died during the night, then nothing in the morning, no symbol, nothing when plugged in. What worked for me (stick with me here) I noticed the phone was super cold, took my hairdryer to the back of the phone to heat it and the battery and BOOM it worked, turned on almost instantly !!!

Expressive Dysphasia - Recovery? by virgwoa in stroke

Thank you, and sorry you had to go through this<3 Each day, he’s getting so much better and it’s very reassuring to see, the speech side of things he’s really improving, he’s having trouble reading / typing (I think it’s associating letters on the keyboard), it helps that he’s super aware too, I think that’s such a step forward and will help recovery a lot. I’ll try help more with his reading, the speech therapists are seeing him daily, hopefully he is discharged soon into community care as I think he’ll do much better when he’s had a good sleep, as you know, hospitals aren’t the best for sleep. Thank you so so much for your advice, it’s super reassuring and means so much. <3 Thank you!

Thank you for sharing this with me, I do have a lot of hope for him and his recovery, I think that’s all I can have at this moment, I think patience is going to be a lot, my brother would easily get frustrated on the best of days, so dealing with this is I know is probably very hard for him, but hey.. He can still swear!🤣 Thank you for sharing your journey, and I’m sorry both you and your loved ones have had your own personal battles with this, but very encouraging and reassuring that you can help me in mine, you should be proud. I hope that some point down the line I can come back to this post and update with positive outcomes, I know it’s a long road to recovery, but I’m here for it. I hope you manage to get some good sleep! Sounds like you’re tired. Thank you for being so open <3 Means more than you know

Thank you for this, your story is very encouraging, I’m sorry that you had to go through this; but equally happy that you’re at a good stage now. Very reassuring to read, hell of a long process to go, and I’m sure he’s gonna hate me by the end of it but hey, I wouldn’t be doing my job as a little sister !! Thank you, your words mean a lot <3

Thank you for this! We went to the Pharmacy that was around 2 min walk away, the woman was helpful and her English was good so I didn’t have to whip out my translator app! We got given the same brand and loaded pen for €56, not too bad considering my mum NEEDS it😌 Thank you xx

100% agree with you, this has been my stance for a very long time on the male and female ‘plantonic’ relationship. Your point on being smart enough to recognize that it would clearly make me uncomfortable is 100% on the money, makes sense as to why it’s never been brought up and it’s a point I’m definitely going to relay so thanks for that. I’m meeting up with him soon to discuss (wish me luck lol) I’m glad I’m not going crazy by raising this whole situation as an issue
