Yes, you were very helpful. Please keep sharing. Its very helpful when
someone can help like that.

Its honestly one of the things I love about this room. We can honestly bring any problem to the room. And everyone will help each other.

There isn't a room like this.

Its a safe haven for so many of us. And for me its been a life saver many times.

Thanks dear friends.

Donna

Donna,
Sorry that information was not useful to you. I can hear the despair. I wish I had some more information for you. I would definately get him to the neurologist. Or let him get there if he is able. Sounds like you have too much on your plate. I am just becoming educated about seizures and epilepsy as I now have nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy. Are they going to take away my drivers license now that I have seizures? Not that I have been driving for a few years, since the traumatic brain injury.
I hope all goes well for you. I will have you in my prayers. You are a great lady.
Much love,
Brain

Heart mammogram, biopsy, calcium

Dear Donna

I know this has got to be beyond unnerving, i would be scared out of my skin, just at the idea...
Somehow, I have a feeling the biopsy will be fine... that you will be fine.
We do have to think positive, too, because it really can help.

I think you once mentioned you take calcium supplements, so calcium deposits would not surprise me that much. Their presence might simply be an indication that you are getting too much calcium, or not enough magnesium to balance it out.

Anyway, I will keep you in my thoughts and keep all my fingers crossed.

love and hugs to you

No Brain
You honestly were helpful. Just having a chance to think it all through.

I am in despair for him. I had hoped it was gone. I knew the odds were
they would return. But had hoped not. They are so debilitating for him.
And the rest around him. So its hard.

I think its so frustrating for me. I want to fix everyone. So its not easy
to tell them. I can't.

I will make sure to tell my husband to make sure he gets to the appt.

But the matter of the car and its problem, isn't been solved eiter.
So the yelling will be after that too. But oh well. Its not my fault
Either. He needs to tell his dad the door handle broke anyway, its his
dads car. While his needs time to start in the cold whether and have
the turn signals fixed.

He will be growing up for sure.

Donna
