so we are cruisin along-- starting to accept things - dans doing everything he can-- meds, eating , drinking, therapies..... I'm doing everything i can all the same stuff PLUS ( as most of you know the PLUS of caregivers)... decide to let dan feel a little productive... he is happiest when he feels usefull--- then BAM here comes another seizure.... wipes him and me out physically and emotionally ( dan from the seizure itself me from the heart attack I almost give myself each time)..Oh we will get back and moving but it is such a disappointment and basically sets him back some... I remember the first seizure set him back like 3 months - broke muscle the whole nine yards... now a seizure sets him back but not nearly as much.. every stroke complication dan gets hit with.. Its like, could we just catch a break??? You know the trouble with this blog is it is Deja Vu....i've written it before - thought it before- lived it before.... I'm just on here bitchin but this is the right place for it... Kinda gets it out of my system to people who at least know the "name of the game"... thanks to stroke net for providing the place to come... Nancyl

Nancy, so sorry to hear about the seizure again. Hopefully, he will recover quicker this time.

 

You are a strong person and Dan is lucky to have you for a spouse.

I admire your stamina in getting through everything that is thrown your way.

I am sorry to hear about this new seizure in your life, I know it rattles every one involved, hopefully you will be able to rebuild better new normal after this another hurdle in your life. I hope & pray God gives you strength & stamina to get through all the hurdles in your life.

Nancy: I am so sorry. You let your guard down for one minute, thinking "Hey! maybe we will have an upswing for a bit" then Wham! right up side your head. And especially with Dan and the depression issues. It is so easy for him to become discouraged.

 

Go easy. Back to the hunker down for a few days and then back on the treadmill. Know I am thinking and praying for both of you. Maybe a day out in the new RV when Dan is up to it. Debbie

-Oh Nancy, for everyone who shares there bad moments, I have to say, it has been such a help to me! Tears just came into my eyes when I wrote that! It really helps so much to know it is not just you, wondering why you can never catch a break, and why you can't just live your life, A LITTLE! Too many prayers from me to God, asking, "what do you want from me? I'm doing all I can now!"
