Peach, as your random thoughts are so precious to me! This thing is cosmic.....ever wonder if the Internet might have been given to us in Berkeley in the '70's if only we'da been better behaved.....?!
Thanks for your good wishes for my Aunt (my Godmother) I'll convey them. These spells started yesterday they're not sure what they are or if/what medicine might help so she's being monitored over the weekend. Hope they find the right potion, it's awful for her because when she has this she sees "patterns" & her eyesight blacks out. Hope it's so simple as increase the medicine she already takes for petit mal (as so many older folks do now) (she's had spells before but these came in sequence, vision blacking, different)....I overheard the Doctor say on the phone "could be migraine-induced TIA", who knows. TIA's are mini-strokes, but so far she was always coherent right away after it happened. Yesterday was a bad day, many hours in the emergency room, tests, etc....
God Bless Her. Without the medicine she's been taking for years she never would have made it as is to 83 and zipping around in an electric wheelchair.
Going there again now to keep her company.
909s On Long Life & Good Health To All,
Joan
