Title: aug 17 surg approaching...some good news!
Post by: deea on August 08, 2007, 09:16:04 pm
I am anxiously awaiting my surg.  symtoms are worsening, more balance and dizziness.  Now on top of of it all....MS flare. ended up in er unable to more arms, figures and legs.  everything is back, but the weakness is so much worse and the dizziness is  almost unbearable at times. 
Trying to keep upbeat, but I think my driving days  are coming to an end.  Not ready but dont think I may have a choise.  Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers the coming weeks.  I will be doing the same for you all.

take care,
God bless.

Hi, Deea:

Of course you have my prayers - and my sincere belief that you'll pull through this O.K.   :) 

Please don't allow fear to govern your thoughts or control your attitude.  Easier said than done, I know, but possible if you choose to do it, as I trust you will. 

Jim

Hi Deaa,

There's never a good time for a MS episode.  I hope this one is short and you're feeling better soon.  Sending lots of healing thoughts your way.

good news,  after dr, appt on friday and hearing test, they again feel  that they may be able to retaiin hearing in AN ear...other ear is great so I am so blessed either way.
the ms is giving me  rough time...very weak and eye sight is poor,so excuse the mistakes.  I've been indoors most of the time due to the heat but did maket with my new seated waker to a neighborhood party and had a great time..,home by 9!
 
The grand kids are all visisting the cottage this weekend and I'm  enjoying having them here.   I did disappear for a 4 1/2 hr nap right in the middle of the visit.  I am just so tired now days and not willing to miss out on a single minute with my family if I can help it......some times it doesnt work.   

Thanks for your prayers and encouragement.  I am hanging in there, less than a week to go!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Good night and God bless,
Deea

Hi Deea,
I have been thinking about you all the time this week.. 2 more days....and mine is right behind yours I think I have about 20 days to go. I will be thinking and praying for you that everything goes well. I am going to give you a call in the next day or two. Take care of yourself and get lots of rest!
Connie

Just an FYI.. are doc knows we are talking with each other... I had an appointment on Friday as well and his nurse mentioned it... not your name or anything just that she knew that I knew another patient and that it was neat that we hooked up..
