I have time to write so I guess I will. This week has been crazy. I have had 9 seizures total since last Saturday and apparently we are still counting. We have had some great help from friends, neighbors, co-workers, and ward members. Funny how it happens the week of my 5 yr mark from surgery. Silly how things like that line up sometimes. Not sure what is exactly causing all the trouble, but the thought is that my meds are to blame. They've been adjusted and now I wait for an appt. with my neuro.
The words "damn" and "hell" have been part of my regular vocabulary this week- unless students or my own kids have been present- not that they don't still enter my mind :) I have always had an attitude of "beating it". I hate "it" being the controlling force, but this week I have given in and let it rule- mostly because I haven't had much of a choice. People have been so awesome though. I've had co-workers check on me, take my classes, ward members have brought food as I have slept most of the week, the Elders have given me a blessing, my visiting teachers and car pool exchange have taken my kids while I was at the ER, and just in general, people have been very kind and generous to my family. I am humbled and feel indebted to those people and THANK YOU everyone for your help. The hero of the week is Mike though. He has taken time off work, has taken the kids out so I can sleep, he gave me a blessing, ran me to the ER, etc, etc. He really has more to go through with this stuff than I do and I have a lot to repay him. I love the guy more than anything. I had a seizure this morning, but they are slowing down and I am happy for that. I guess that's it. I feel quite conquered right now but hope that there will be some kind of renewal coming in the next week.
