Hi John:
Sorry it's been so long since I contacted you, I've been having afew difficulties since the 'Surgery'(nothing too serious). Anyway, as I've told many other's before, I have a 'Very-Bad-Memory' so if I repeat myself,Please forgive me OK? The 'Surgery' itself went good, just that they've informed me that if your 'Epilepsy' effects the 'Left-Side' of your 'Brain',they won't do the final 'Surgery' due it functions your 'Memory & Body-Functions'(I wouldn't remember anyone, or be able to move much if at all /more or less a 'Veggie'.)
But the way I look at it,,is they 'Tried',& to me that's all that matter's,. Plus the fact there's alot of people out there far worse off than I am (we are). Well, take-care & I hope you'll 4-give me for taking so long getting back to you,.

PLEASE 4-give me 'John' if I've already sent 'info'..but due to another 'accident' ,my 'memory' has worsened. Anyway,,My 'Neurologist' is, "Dr, Arts" (of Barrie,Ontario) & family "Dr,Trevor Berns",also of Barrie,Ontario. Now, a 'specialist' of "London, Ontario,Hospital" is preparing me for 'Surgery' (planning to 'implant' piece that get's a 'better' look at what's going on). Dr. Diosy, of 'London-Hospital',,does believe it is the 1-side causing all these 'seizures',,but wants to be sure. I'm just "VERY" scared, & Because I've already been 'Mal-Practiced' by 1 physician,,makes it harder trusting other's. I really hope you understand what I've said, & ANY support from you,,would TRULY be appreciated,,,THANX 4 your time,,Tracey,,,,
