  3. So, I had a few major seizures last week and the doctors gave me Propofol to knock me out of them for a bit because the seizures weren't stopping. I was out for about a day or so, and then awake in the ICU for an additional day. The doctors then moved me out into another part of the hospital for the rest of my recovery. I broke out as soon as I could and I'm not looking back . So, instead I'm changing some unhealthy habits that I've picked up along the way; I am eating better, more often, more healthier, cutting caffeine out, and will be re-filling my anti-seizure medicine for preventive measures. Things are looking up.

  6. So I tried the college thing, and figured out that I'm more hindered than I thought. My ego is very bruised by this. I wanted to so badly be able to accomplish my goal, instead I watched myself fail for the first in my life. All I want is to move on with my life and to be successful at something; but I'm still stuck running in place after 4 years. I wish I could wake-up from this horrible dream and go back to the way things were before. This is by far the most difficult this I've had to deal with, and it doesn't get any easier. I'm not even 30 yet and I feel like I'm 60 already.
  7. After 3 years of sitting on my butt feeling lost, I finally have a direction so I can move on with my life. I feel my depression will be a thing of the past since I have found my purpose in my life again. Before my stroke, my dream was to be a paramedic; seeing as that is not attainable anymore, I've decided that I can still help others in another way by becoming a 911 Dispatcher. So that is the goal, I've taken some small steps to ensure my success in the coming years. I've made a step-by-step plan that I have put into action recently. It's going to take some time and money, but I'm going for it. My only worry is that my families troubles, and problems may have an impact on my success because I am dependant on them.
