  • Things are still stressful here. Mr Lucky has been very repetitive and vague recently so I arranged for MiL to take him for a coffee yesterday so I could have a little break. Didn't work out that way though, as DS1 ended up off school feeling sick. He made an amazing recovery though and chewed my ear off the whole time Mr L was out. Waves of fear started for Mr L last night though, and are still continuing. He's had one partial seizure but no TC's yet. He's quite confused and hard work.

    Gained 2.5lbs last night so comfort eating has to stop.

  • Thanks both. Waves still coming thick and fast. I took DS2 up to bed earlier and discovered dog had pee'd on his bed :eek::mad::(. He's not done that before and hasn't had an accident for a couple of months, so don't know what that's about. More work for me :(.

    Very occasionally my dog pees on the bed and she's 4 - usually on DD's bed, but then her room is such a mess that the dog probably thinks she's on some waste ground! 99% of the time she's really good (the dog not DD!).

    Hope things are better in the Lucky household today. I know how it feels when you have to do everything for everyone and some days it just gets too much.

    Take care xx
