Wed, 06/14/2006 - 05:27Hi everybody :-) I don't remember the last time I've been on this site. I've been busy with work mostly, but last week or was that a week ago..can't remember. Yeah, my memory problems are real problems for me. Drives me nuts. But, anyway, I was havine one heck of an emotional high. Words, I must say, can be lethal depending on who's mouth its coming from and how it is "said". I was on the treadmill trying to let off my steam. I hear that being a seizure patient and "emotions" pretty much goes hand in hand along with memory problems.
As for work.....it's my only salvation from keeping from thinking any negative thoughts at all. I'm very much surprised that I haven't had a seizure yet when I was on my emotional high considering that emotions is one of my triggers.
That's all I wanted to say. Hope everyone is ok.

Hi seizuregirl. Thanks for stopping by and filling us in how life is going for you. I hope today is a very good day, the sun shines, the flowers bloom, and life is good. Glad the child is showing the adult the way, and helping out without even knowing about it. That helps, less complicated. I have 2 grandchildren who are the light of my life who have taught me so much since they arrived. Life can be like that at times, and the world would be a sorrier place without the children in it I've found. Friends-what can I say, you have not already said. They can be a blessing or a frustrating experience in our lives, and world. All I can say is hang in there, and don't get frustrated in trying to cope. Tell them how you feel, and see what happens. It's what I've found works best, and helps. People do get caught up in their own lives, and don't stop to see at times what matters. The way it goes I guess, and experience tells me there are some people you can talk to, some you cannot. Sports fans seem to be the worst. All that testosterone I guess? You hang in there, and stay as positive and upbeat as you sound-it helps I've found. Just keep on keeping on updating, as that will help the new members we have, and make them feel welcome, and fill in the picture for them. Cat.
