Finaly admitting work to much
Posted , 3 users are following.
Last night I had a seizure (suffer Catamenial/ functional seizures). And i had to txt my boss to say cant come in. Woke with a migrain plus fibro pain is increasing Not a good day!!!!!!!!!. My Aunty visited me and helped me start ball rolling for PIP. Not sure if i will get it, but just feel like work is to much stress of knowing i will be in pain after shift then stress about if i am off i wont get paid. I have tried for so long and strugled.Its mentaly hard to come to this decision because i want my independence. But i have struggled for years only 42 . Ahh well. Last week went for nurophycology app she was really nice, have a few more visits think positive this will help. Sorry just going on Just needed to See how other people cope with this decision.

It is hot here. You can fry a egg on the side walk. How is your weather?
On Thursday coming I am going to meet my son Johnathan down town for lunch. Nothing like trying again. He just borrowed more money from me to get food. I told him that it would be better for him to come back home and save his money for his own house. Why make it so hard on yourself? Said that he wanted a family in the future. He may or may not come home. His mind is in the clouds.
My daughter Charlene and I had a serious talk about our up coming flight. She said if I have a seizure on landing that she would help get me off the plane and than into a wheel chair. If need be we would take a taxi to the port. O.K.
Oh baby is it hot outside.

I just did a detox after that last seizure visit to the ER. I used a detox kit from the health store. Will I tell you I didn't smell like a rose if you know what I mean. Trying not to use naughty words But I also suffered from a ring of fire too. It does help.
Big paws usually means big dog.
If I lived in the U.K. I would certainly be best friends with you. We could take chances together when we go out together. You would be in the best of care with me. I'm a expert, I must say.
The weather here is hot and the air condition is running. Will cost me a arm and a leg. Helps Charlene with her suffering with hot flashes. She is 42 years old. That makes me a old mummy. My youngest is Johnathan who is 23 years old. I also have another daughter, Jennifer 37 and a son 40 plus a son in his early 30s. Five times a lady. Seasoned mom.
I'm making spagetti tonight, yammy.
Cheers-Mary

How are you???
Weather here in Canada is cloudy and chilly with lots of rain.
I'm going for a hair cut today. My hair dresser is Jimmy the Greek. I have been going to him for years now. He is married but is so good looking. He understands how to cut curly hair.
Any relief from your seizures?
Are we the only ones still using this forum?
Just wanted to say hi.
Take care-Mary from across the pond.

How am I? Still hate night shift. There have been too many deaths lately. One of my residents died in his bathroom, flat on his face. Was trying to have a pee and got dizzy most likely. His daughter came in to see him at 3am. She fell into my arms and cried with her head resting on my breasts. Those breasts of my have been a comfort place for many family members of residents when their deaths have come.
I went down town with my daughter Charlene and Johnathan for lunch.We ate at a pub. They both had beers. I don't like beer. We had a great time together.
So happy you haven't had a seizure for 3 days. Any relief is wonderful. I know I have a weakness to seizures. It's just there. No control. I just live throught them. Horriable as they are. More up setting to my family. Painful for me. My heart races to over 200 beats a minute when I have them. Always scares the paramedics.
The sun is shinning today and its pleasant. I'm going to get my toe nails done today. It is long over due.
If you change your job maybe to a sit down one. That might be lighter. Life's a bowl of cherries with the pits left inside.
Basket of hugs and naughty things like chocolates and bags of chips.

With all our emails we have a start to a interesting book. I'm sure our first chapter has already been written. If we were neighbours I'm sure we would have a glorious time together as close friends. I love cruising and seeing small parts of this beautiful blue gem we live on. No cooking or cleaning or going to work the next day. Being serve your meal is like royality. My whole cruise cost for everything $1700.00. That is a excellent prize. My daughter cost is lower because her medical insurance is less than my because of age.
You are a beautician by trade. Wonderful. There are alot of older women who can't reach down and do their toe nails anymore. I can't. Here they charge $30.00. You would be a rich woman. Did you work as a health care aide ? You could have just one person to take care of or maybe two a week to start. Helping with their personal care. I did this many years ago. I had some dear souls. Don't take on the mean ones. I hope the best for you.
I understand having a seizure on a bus because I have done it. People just look. My daughter is so good at knowing what to do. My chest would tighten up due to muscle contractions.This made it hard to breath. I have no use with my legs after a seizure. When I'm able to walk again it is so hard to know how to move them. My thinking is off and my speach. I'm unwell for at less two days after. I guess living with this condition is a day to day thing of not knowing when one will happen. I have had siezures alone. Two years ago I was O.K. than just one day I started seizures because of a heart scan and than a lungs scan. Who knows what else. My library computer just said my time is up.
A ship load of hugs and naughty things like cherry cheese cake and vanilla ice cream.

I am still doing night shift. It is wearing. After my cruise, I am going to talk again to my nurse manager about going back on day shift. I am a morning person at heart. 15 days until our cruise. I wish there is away to send you pictures too or cards etc. Is there? Our novel is going into chapter two.
Stroke like . I get that during and after a seizure. I can't walk for some time after wards and I'm in such a fog mentally for a few days. I understand.
You worked in a home. Residents can be depressing to look after. I take care of 26. I have been a health care aide since 1984. I'm so use to it. When I was young women just starting to work in the nursing home I used to cry when I was leaving at the end of the day. One day I said to myself leave what ever happen during the day of work at the door and pick up your life outside and the other way around. It has been along road to travel down but it pays the bills.
I hope you find a job that will suite you situation . Hazel, I never know when or where I may have a next seizure. I hope also for the best too. Never a dull moment. I love cherry cheese cake and vanilla ice cream. I am no shapely beauty after five children. I would rather have a bag of chips than a chocolate bar.
Basket of love and joy-Mary

I did, I did. My daughter said I may of made a small typing error when sending your " NEWS PAPER". The paper boy died on route. I just tried again. I do hope he made it this time? It is a big pond to swim across. I will check with you tomorrow as I do not have a computer in my home. I use the library's. Oh there is a person beside me with weed perfume. I hate that smell so much. Is the word weed a naughty word?
Air mail bage of hugs-Mary
