Default MRI Today & update on me

It has been six months since my last brain MRI so I am off again for another.

I came home from work early yesterday and slept for 2 hours. Some of you know I have had stress in my personal life, well it has caught up with me.

The face tingle/prickles are back this morning along with the right side of my tough numb. I have been up a half hour and feel like I could go back to sleep the rest of the day. Two days ago Vertigo started.

Next week is finals - a week vacation - and then school starts all over again. I did get some good news last week that my Finacial Aid gets stretched throughout the entire year and I can go all summer and not have to pay anything!

I am working really hard to get my slate landscaping business up and running. I am hoping to be able to go to the bank within the next month. I know this is going to be my saving grace.....

The wieght on my shoulders is very heavy and my eyes hurt from crying but I keep reminding myself I am tough and he will help me through this...... but honestly there are days like today I question him and myself.

when is enough enough?

Oh, Char, I'm guessing that maybe there is more to this than just school, but you'll make it! Keep the faith, you can do anything!

Please get enough rest, you really need it.

Let us know how the MRI goes, okay?

Sorry you are going through so much right now. I am hoping the silver lining is around the corner for you. Cry, vent, even scream if you need to. We understand.

Hope the MRI goes ok today.

Sorry you're going through a trial, Char. There is light at the end of the tunnel...sometimes we can't see it but it's there. I hope things get better real soon.

I'm so sorry for all your stress Char. I hope things will get better soon. I can so relate to what you're going through. I am very glad your financial aid was extended.

Hang in the Char....you can get through this. Help is on the way!

I am glad that the financial aid is being extended, that's one less thing you have to worry about!

You have lots of support, so take it easy. Remember, this landscaper will help you!
