I'm here. I kept waiting for the old forum and checking everyday to see if it was up and running.

Hot summer and I survived it better than I thought I would. Doc put me on Wellbutrin and it seems to pep me up. Before I was on Paxil and now I have cut way back on the Paxil.
July 17 my mother in law comitted suicide. I felt like I had just lost my own Mom. She was one of my best friends. It was such an emotional event that I thought my MS would go hay wire for sure. But things have remained okay. FYI: She was in a lot of pain for over 30 years. Back then she was hit by a drunk driver and it caused severe Migraines and stenosis in the neck. Nothing helped and believe me she sought out EVERYTHING. So now she is at peace but I will miss her terribly. |

Karilann,
You seem to have an understanding and perspective on her decision that most survivors of a suicide never get. It's a gift that you can see what led her to this and know she is no longer in pain. I'm so sorry for your loss. |

Karilann,
I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. I admire her for enduring the pain for 30 years... I just can't imagine what it must have been like to live in such extreme pain. Did she "close things off" with you (or her son I'm assuming is the relation?) before she did this (or leave a note)? I think one of the worst things for those left behind is a lack of closure and the unanswered questions. Sounds like you do have some answers of at least what precipitated it. I'm really sorry. So hard to lose anyone we care about, even if they are at peace because of it. |

Hi Everyone -
I finally found this "copy" of our beloved Brain Talk - I do miss it. I don't know where everyone went but I'm glad I finally found this one! Mexigrl aka Laurianne |

Hi all!
I'm back too. I sure could have used BT this summer. My husband deployed back to Iraq for 7 months in July. I have a 3 year old and a baby who just turned 1. Whew! My MS has been pretty active probably because it's so hard to get enough sleep and not be stressed out. I've had Optic Neuritis and some more leg weakness. Not fun at all. Luckily my family lives close by and has been helping out. I'm so glad I found my way here. It was a relief to ask about the disability placard and to see how everyone else is doing. Hopefully more will join us soon. Take care, Jean |

karilann, how terribly sad about your mother-in-law! Please accept my condolences.
Jmak, how nice that you found your way here. I read the thread about your disabled parking permit problem and was about to say that I've had one of those for over 20 years and never had a problem getting it. I haven't ever had a car but I use it if a helper takes me some place. But it looks as if you've solved the problem--great! mexigrl aka Laurianne, welcome back! Good to see some familiar names here--it's been a long time without BrainTalk, hasn't it? Last edited by agate; 09-15-2006 at 12:56 AM. Reason: to correct spelling |
