RE: [epilepsy] Re: Short term memory

 

Hi Doris

Again I am late in here but I am going back through my
messages as I just get so many.

Anyway, regarding my epilepsy, most days I don't even
remember I have it, I haven't had a full seizure since 1997
and only have storms so surely if I worried about what may
happen next I am more likely to induce a sz, why make it
worse? Ok I can't drive because I am also blind but again it
doesn't worry me. I where a medic alert chain and that I
hope gives me the confidence to carry on my life as normal
as I can. Yes I do get fed up because I am a bit more
restricted in what I can and can't do because of the
epilepsy but I am not going to worry about it. What will be
will be. The only thing that reminds me that I have epilepsy
is the fact that I have to take medication for it every day
and the fact that I am sitting here typing away and I keep
pressing the wrong keys but I think we all do that.

On that note I am going to shut up as I have many messages
to read through.

Just to let you know that the weather here is awful, it
feels like autumn, cold, wet and windy. Take care all.

Regards

Adrien

Hi Steve,
Don't you wonder what will happen next concerning this. I
think
often about what time will bring. I bet this is apprehensive
to many of us. Wishing all a positive week with thought that
we're all together. Take care.
Doris
