Ooohhh long night. We lost power again. We were without power for 3 days and nights last week. How it hurt to wake up without it tonight - but we were out only 3 1/2 hours.

Thanks you Julie and Curious for listening to me - you have no idea at all how much that means to me.

I am dealing with some great doctors and they do reiterate all my options - even saying "no" and walking out - over and over. I'm told what the possibilities of dying during surgery are and things like that. I look at a break-apart model of the brain and drawings until I get dizzy.
I know I can take the weeks of tests and still say, "Thanks but I don't want surgery".

I know if I have the surgery that may relieve the seizures. my short term memory and word finding ability will be even more damaged.

I suppose the surgery I really need is one that will control this talking too much.
