Some Answers

I got a call from my doctor's office today and they gave me some news regarding my crazy health issues. My brain EEG shows abnormalities consistent with a seizure disorder. As my friend put it, knowing is half the battle. Yes, I now know. Steve, being the awesome husband he is, has been doing everything he can to help me get through all this. Today he drove me to one of my favorite stores, Hobby Lobby, to let me poke around. It was there that I started having problems again and ended up in ER for the afternoon. Note to self: buy cuter socks in case of emergency. On the good side, they were clean. 
So the news is that my seizures are preceded by an "aura", which is basically a horrible rotten feeling that you are about to die, or close to it. I guess it would be the equivalent of a panic attack. Anyway, I'm in the car headed for home. Hubby bought me some Oreos and picked up my anti seizure meds until I can get in to see the neurologist. The girls have no knowledge of this yet. I hope to find some words to explain that won't scare them. 
God is good. All the time. I'll be fine! My faith is bigger than my fear!!

Continued prayers for you, Steve and the girls. Knowing is helpful but now you have to figure out how to live with it. Thank you for sharing with us.
