After typing numerous entries and not posting them I've come to the decision to create a separate Blogg with "Life As a Seizure Mom" as the focus (don't hold me to that title please...I haven't totally dedicated myself to it), while rededicating myself to posting on this forum.
Yes, I've been busy and life has been hectic however, THIS is my outlet. THIS is my "heart and mental health" therapy. THIS is what I need to do in order to feel as if I matter and to keep my 'skills sharp.' My writing has suffered since my only form of writing is on FaceBook and while it is slightly filling it is about the same as going to Outback Steak House, ordering loaded cheese fries and not following up with a steak or salad...it isn't filling or keeping me on my writing toes. If I'm really honest it has made me lazy in my writing and dulled my skills (so, please don't judge me right now on anything I write...I'm 'flowing with the thoughts').
Looking forward to starting the new forum also. Many times I don't talk about my struggles with my seizures-my family worries enough without having to read about it also. They are on constant "Seizure Watch" and have their own 'ghosts' to fight with seizures. Occasionally I will post if I've had a hard couple of days just as an FYI for my friends and family. There really isn't anyone I can complain to, roar about the injustice of the situation, or simply express my thoughts and feels to without people feeling sorry for me. That isn't my intent, I only want to get my thoughts and feelings out to 'sort' them. My new Blogg will be only about my life as a mother, wife, and woman living with Epilepsy and uncontrolled seizures.
Keep your eyes out for it! Until then.... "Toole-Loo"!
