My grama had a stroke ok n November. And she wldnt eat because the brain tells her she will choke. So she ddnt eat for like a month. In that time her eyes would twitch and she would vomit. Now she has a feeding tube. And has been ok. But last night twice and once this morning my grama will hurt we dnt know from were cuz she dont talk. Why do her eyes twitch like she cant control them? And she dont known why she jst shruggs her shoulders.

This comes under involuntary movement disorder, you need to visit a doctor and need to have a medical check for her. Doctor may give initially anti epileptic drugs also and will keep her under observation for 1 or 2 days.
Don't worry she will recover it happens with many patients who are on long term bed rest and not having food properly due to electrolytes imbalance.
Hope this was helpful to you. Take care
