OH no, Laura! How scary! I'm glad you're OK, and I hope you're able to take everything down a notch if you need.
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
Oh my goodness, Laura! Glad you are on the mend and hopefully can figure out a good way to proceed.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Oh, Laura, how scary! I'm glad you're home, and I hope your doctor(s) can figure out what's going on.

Our wings are not tired.
As per usual, this is the last thing in the world I have time for! My mom is in the hospital. The brain fog is the worst because I normally have to handle so many things. All reports are that my son Bobby was paramedic extraordinaire. Mostly I have huge guilt for putting him and DH through such a rough experience.
I've been reading that an Atkins type diet is supposed to be beneficial. I just really don't want to take drugs. With only having the one seizure I'm thinking I can hold off on medication and try some less offensive measures first.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Oh Laura, how scary! I'm so glad that you're okay, if a bit foggy. Please please please let go of the worries about burdening your family. Sounds like you need to shift some of your burdens onto others for a while.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Oh Laura, I'm so glad you're ok!
The ketogenic diet is pretty intense, and decidedly not pescetarian. It might be an additional stress -- and an unnecessary one if this was a one-off seizure (which, I understand, do happen). Blah blah I'll stop now.
Feel better. It's ok for your family to worry about you. It is really really REALLY ok. You are not a burden, you are a member of a family. It's part of the package.

Oh my god, Laura! My hand flew to my mouth and my eyes were so wide they hurt...how awful for you!
Thank goodness you were well cared for, but...oh my god.
I don't know anything at all about seizures. May this be a total one-off.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Brain~ma, Laura. There are no easy answers for this one, but I hope that you find the answers that work for you with a minimum of fuss and bother.
