EndreWhiteMane: Are you not feeling well?

CarrionCrow: How are you doing besides catching up on undoubtedly much needed rest?
It's not that I was feeling poorly, I was just wiped out. I feel much better after my second nap today (thank goodness sis took the kids out for a while so we could rest~!)

Youngest will (finally!) go to neurology tomorrow to follow up on the Grand Mal seizure she had back in November. They increased her seizure medicine when we went to the hospital back then, and her seizures have been well-controlled since, but you can bet that if they *hadn't* been, I'd have been camped out on their doorstep! >_<

She had it in November...they're checking things out in April.
Did the neurologist take a 4 month frigging vacation?

It's good that the increased medication has been helping. Having to deal with things you can't control fully, that you can't anticipate, is the worst.

No doubt of that whatsoever. You're looking out for them all the time. It's why I mentioned the "undoubtedly needed" part. ;)

Happy Easter / Passover!

After a long day of cooking, cleaning, washing and family fun I settled down for a few private drinks (maybe one too many ;) ) and some games before bed! Just thought I'd pop in and wish everyone still hanging in there tonight the best!

Not to make anyone jealous, but I just had to get out there in the ether that despite the inevitable ups and downs, gives and takes of the various holidays (and life in general!) I've very grateful to always come out on the side of "smile on the face" more often than not.

And I apologize for being insufferable and cheery, but thanks for hearing me out regardless!

*edit! Grrrrr note to self - read the thread beforehand! Having had a family health issue or two lately I feel bad for being a bit too ebullient after others going through own rough times. Though the well wishes still stand.

Yeah, no doubt *dry look* I was so upset when they told me they couldn't get youngest in until APRIL! >_< It was her first Grand Mal, and it scared the crap out of us. It would have been nice if they could have at least *called* me. To be fair, Doernbecher's is one of the best children's hospitals in the whole Northwest, so it's no wonder they're so booked up. But still...

Same to you, thank you. =)

Well, aside from one thing anyway. I'd have to agree, you are way too cheery.
What I think we all need is more misery and depression, since as you well know, a thread is always at its best when all participants hate everything, are never ever happy about anything and kinda want to kill themselves. ;)

(Also, the vocabulary word of the day is now ebullient.)

I could say, "I can only imagine how that must've been", but that would be such crap.
I can't, and I'm sorry you and your family have to deal with things like that.

That's very understanding of you. My opinion? They could've called.
A few minutes to give some peace of mind to people dealing with profoundly scary shit feels like a small investment of time with a big payoff.

grape? Must be a Euro thing... pure maple thing in these parts:)
But to be fair, I made a peanut butter and strawberry sandwich yesterday. Not jelly... real fruit.

But I've been sick lately...


Anyway... just wanted to say Hi to the gang here...

HypersomniacLive: Saturday was nice, chilly and windy, but also a bit sunny during the morning and early afternoon. Made the walk at the waterfront quite enjoyable. Went to the theatre in the evening.
Sorry I missed this before I went to bed. What did you see at the theatre? I love going to the theatre, whether it be for a play, some lovely music, or even some ballet.
