A bad one

Late yesterday I had my worst seizure for some weeks, senior management had to give me two lots of diazepam to stop them, don't get me wrong I've had grand mal and absence seizures for years now but apparently this was a bad one, and I had the iron in my hand (luckily cold).
I feel so rotten today I could cry, I feel like I am in limbo land half awake half asleep. I hate this condition with a vengeance.
Hopefully as the day goes on and the diazepam wears off I'll start to feel half human again.
Thanks for reading x

I sort of know what you mean, I've been in extreme pain today and I don't know how much more I can take. I can't do anything, so I don't feel like part of the human race. It's very limiting, as is your condition. I just feel that life shouldn't be a constant battle...
Take care.

I've just read something that has really upset me though, a 63 year old survivor of the 1966 Aberfan disaster has died of this dammed covid, to survive all those years from our biggest peacetime disaster to die from this virus is truly awful. x
I can relate to the comment above about not feeling part of the human race and just wanting to feel normal.
That’s sad to hear about the death as well. A 35 year old fireman who was fit and healthy died near us recently so for all the people ignoring the rules because they are healthy and/or young it shows that even if you are fit and young you are not immune to it.
I didn't know them personally he was father of my podiatrist but brings it all closer to home
Do you not get any warning before fits?
I remember when my son was very young he would get no warning and crash backwards to the floor as if he'd been shot at point blank range...spent a lot of his early years wearing a helmet....fortunately now he usually knows when one's about to come on and he'll lie down...
Best wishes.
