Hopes For The New Year

 I hope I have at least one seizure free day, as it's been over 2 years since that's happened.

 No matter what , I am just going to be glad to of made it to 2014!
Everyone should be, really.

Now I shall tell you about Christmas and such...... I was extremely busy working on gifts and things for my family. Christmas eve my parents , Aaron, Kelsey and I opened gifts and played some Christmas mad libs........The weird thing was someone used my name and said that I wore bells around my wrist that would jingle whenever I fell.   I DO! It is sort of a low tech alarm I guess.

Anyway the next day my Grandparents and Katie and Ethan came over and we had more gifts and played more mad libs. I couldn't stop laughing, one really should stay away from that game if you have a sore rib, I fell and hit it on the bathroom sink days before..not because of a seizure though just because I was unsteady.

Not the next day but the next was my Dad's birthday and we went to my uncle's house which is always fun and there was some good music there.

Then not the next day but the day after that was Kelsey's birthday and church. She had a friend over and seemed to be having fun.

Yesterday I had i.v. and waited and waited and waited to see the doctor and then... my friend Tammy came in I was so glad and it made the day better.  I missed her so much and I pray for her everyday.
I also saw my friend Mike and I hardly recognized him because hes got hair now!! He even grew a beard!  I hope that means he is doing better, we don't really talk too much about how we are . We both pretty much said the same thing , that we had good days and bad days.

I feel like it's been three weeks since I did anything on this blog...I guess I'm tired.

 What I made for my Dado ( I call him that sometimes)..I sewed the fabric on the sweatshirt I didn't make the sweatshirt, sorry it's sideways the computer was not cooperating.

 The back of it....

 Aaron's......

         Kelsey's.......

        Momma's...........

     The card I made for Grandpa, I made a different one for my Grandma.

 So that is what I have been up to. Very busy!

Tuesday

 Yesterday I went to i.v. since I missed it the day before.

Awful .
Unhappy.
Blah.
Sore throat, sore belly.
I tried to make myself smile at i.v., mostly because the nurses could tell I was not good and they were not smiling either.  I couldn't really smile, not until i.v. was over and I got to see Mike. That helped.

But later in the day , I felt much better!!
Thank you God!

Party In The I.v. Room and Other Happenings

 Today I had to see the doctor. I guess I'll be trying Lamictal .
After that I had i.v. , my friend the lady with the red bag was there and someone new............Mike.
 Mike saw my leg brace and he used to have one too, he had to have it for years but he doesn't need it now. That made me happy, he doesn't need it now...and sad, he had it for years.
Mike doesn't have a gallbladder either.
Mike eats similar foods as me.
He was very nice and told me a joke.
He wore my helmet some, and asked if it suited him ...I said maybe if it had a different colored flower on it. He said if it had cauliflower on it!!! I said I thought broccoli would suit him best , " Good, that's my favorite, said he".
We laughed and laughed.
One of the nurses said it sounded like a party in there . ( That's  because we made it one)

Mike doesn't have seizures.. he has cancer.


Afterwards Mommy took me to the store so I could get some new shoes, I needed some for fall and since I have to get 2 different sizes I thought I had better get them early before sizes sell out. Well we found one that fit the brace and one that fit the other foot but they were not the same style, I was disappointed.
Then later a person that worked there asked me if I found what I needed and I told her my tale of shoes and she and another lady found me what I needed!!
Hooray for Wal-Mart !!! When you need to buy two sizes without going broke it works.
Kids sizes always seem to have less selection , and when your in your 20s it can be rather frustrating.

Sunday I made it to church and had lunch with Grandpa!!
Afterwards rubber band man came!! He used to be a postman and he goes around shooting people with rubber bands and giving them rubber bands so they can spread the love. The first time I met him I was afraid of him because he shot rubber bands at me through the open can window when I was ten and I was setting in there waiting for my Dad  and rubber band man said to let him in!!!!! No way was I letting a strange rubber band shooting fellow into the car when my dad was in the store. It turned out he knew my dad. 

Last summer we became friends again at my cousins wedding.

Saturday my dad took me to a concert and Grandpa came.
I really enjoyed it , I had lots of seizures and that was not so good.
A man came up to my dad and told him that he really should give me some cannabis, that he didn't smoke it when he was a kid and that he really missed out and he had a friend that has seizures and it helped him. ( slightly surprising since it wasn't that kind of concert, or place ...I mean I think the place was even a tobacco free school zone!!)

Anyway I wish it was legal for everyone...............I wish.
