Saturday Nov 26, 2016

well, about 6 weeks between seizures isn't bad... I was hoping for more.

It's been a bit of a stressful week for Larry with the weather changes and not getting a lot of sleep the past few days. Add to that a bit of anxiety about the weekend (dinner dates, etc).  He also had a pill mishap a few days ago, so that probably contributed.

Also noticed that yesterday he was just miserable, and couldn't figure out why. I'm going to go with that it's his "aura" for seizures.


still, we're getting good at it.  He called me, let me know what was going on, I grabbed his meds and we got it under control in 5 minutes all told.  Thank goodness for Ativan, I tell you!  This one would have gone full body, I think - it went from tremors in his finger to his shoulder in 3 minutes.

He said to me "I now understand posts in my support group that have 'Xdays seizure free'".  I know he was hoping to have healed from them by now, but they are lessening in frequency and severity  - so hopefully he'll keep improving.

Not a whole lot to report, other than Larry managed a full 5 days alone :)

I went to visit my dad, who's recovering from colon cancer surgery, and Larry stayed home by himself.  No issues whatsoever, which is great!
