Thank you for shareing your life and dealing with your seizures, Health and Medication issues.
I am 61 and have not been given a firm diagnosis of my brain leison or mass or what ever it is --I had a significant seizure the first of the June and have been but on Keppra, and am doing good. No new seizures.
I have a large family and am so thankful that I have had the involvement that I have had, and may continue to have in there lives. Its my husband that I feel so worried about as he deals with the financial aspect and emotional worry about me---lots of guilt and wish I just had died suddenly as I have had a great life and worked in the health field----Occupational Therapy and was working at the local Medical center in Acute Rehab. I know and have seen the whole picture many times and am trying to remain hopeful and positive. My first episode that found the strange leison was in April of o8 , the image grew,and last Nov. I went to UCLA to get futher opinion from them. I am riding the wave right now and will have some emergency Insurance by Sept.
Just wanted to say what encourageing words you wrote and I want to remain positive also.
Please forgive all spelling and poor grammer!
