    My tesco shopping and wombling days are over...

    whilst out walking my dog yesterday i collapesed and had a seizure bit a huge bit of clean of my tounge, bruised face, black eye, wet myself (dont laugh) the only thing i remember is waking up in an ambulance 1/2 hour later. blood tests all ok..they say they think ive had an epileptic fit..therefore i can longer drive for at least a year...

    im the only one that can drive as im already a carer for my wife..

    we live in a small village..only a couple of shops no tesco..

    everything is going to change now i have no car. cant go to tesco. cant go on either of the 2 holidays we have booked.

    so on monday ive got to go to the GP and arrange brain scans and EEG's. and then hope for the best that it was just a 1 off, but either way its looks like i will lose my licence..

    FOR DOGGY / PET PEOPLE
    my dog is perfectly fine apparantly he just sat by my side gaurding me when i was on the floor fitting..he wouldnt let anyone near me until it was someone he knew (luckily because of him everyone talks to you when you have a dog)
    i couldNT ask for a more loyal friend and protector..

    ive got so many questions to ask.what, if, when etc.

    they say life begins at 40..well if this is the start of my life IT SUCKS

    Big Hugs:( xx

    Started off as very subtle colours but got better and ended up jogging back home with the dog. Think I might just have missed the best of it.

    Bless your heart, what a scary thing to happen. As has already been said, get your bum down the doctors tomorrow and have every test possible done. It's true that you won't be given your license back until you have not had a seizure for a certain period of time (i'm sure it's a year) but public transport and home shopping are always available. Hopefully it was just a one off but if not with the right medication it can be controlled. (it might take a little while to find the right meds but it is possible)
    Huge hugs to you and your fabulous doggie for staying with you. Take care of yourself. x

    I love what QPR says about its time for your Dad to take care of you financially.I lost my Dad too and I know that if it was me he'd be shouting down from up there"Just do it";)Whether you sell it or rent, I'm sure he'd want you to benefit from it financially.I understand how you feel and my Dad used to make furniture and it took me a long time to decide to change it all (And Nannylala with hers) As we were holding on to it for sentimental reasons:(But we both realised that if my Dad had been here now he would have made us new stuff and we would never have held onto the old stuff for so long. We have both kept identical bureaus that he made but the rest we have let go now:)I'm a great believer in everything we own connects to us somehow and some stuff "clutters" us up with emotional baggage:(So when we decide to let go we free ourselves a bit:)Your Dad enjoyed being there so much, so rent it or sell it and let someone else enjoy it too:)That way you will also have the financial benefit which I'm sure he would have loved.Sorry for the long post but I hope you get what I mean:o

    Wise words nikki. :T

    Good morning all. It is grey and misty here.

    I really miss my outdoor thermometer but I am in negotiations to get a new weather station at the price I want to pay, so will have one soon. Unless of course it is LL.L degrees outside (and no it is not a low battery!)

    Massive dusting and vacuuming marathon here, tree has gone and the decs so have to clean now - never bother over Christmas as I can't get to the surfaces to clean, can only really vacuum in the lounge and dining room over Christmas as DD is the one who decorates and she likes it OTT, still she enjoys it and that's what counts, we will just enjoy it till she leaves home!
    Doze any1 know who I put a picture up?>

    Really sorry this has happened to you markz.
    But re losing the license, you would now be entitled to a free bus pass which hopefully you can get to the supermarkets for wombling. Hopefully the bus driver will let you take the dog with you .

    Take care :)
